Why? You don't like it?
I think that post should be given its own thread and stickied somewhere for quick reference when someone comes by using this argument.

I don't like being quoted as an authority, period, much less as an authority on something my opinion is not authoritative for. The only reason that post exists is because I couldn't sleep, was irritable, and needed something to pass the time to distract me. There are exaggerations in it. Not many, but a few. But if people want to cite someone, they should cite actual primary or secondary literature, not the ramblings of a disgruntled internet poster.
