Good read, thanks.

Just a note on copyright. Try not to repost entire articles. Small quotes and reference the source. Reposting the article in whole is copyright infringement and isn't fair to those putting time into writing the articles...

Too late to edit now, maybe a mod could if copyright laws are a worry.

Ben Kaminski · 08-22-2006, 12:32 PM

Very interesting, thanks.

Very interesting INDEED.

How about a link to the original article so I can get rid of the copywright-infringing post?

Looks like the link only gives you the first 2-1/2 paragraphs, requiring you to subscribe to get the rest.
