    Fine, fine.

    I do find Roderic Day overrated, but that’s not the point.

    I think people have this penchant for (sometimes) telling others to read something and having the other person go the extra mile when they could’ve been simply told in fewer words.

    I get it, not everyone has the time, but at best, it results in the person being “converted” to yours or someone else’s opinion (again, at best) while neglecting any counter-arguments.

    It’s a very, err, artificial way of creating a follower, if you catch my drift; it’s not that organic and just sort-of creates a situation (at best, I should stress) where there’s no real discussion and others can’t hop in to challenge you or whoever is doing this.

    Idk, I study communications so…

    lol Just thought I’d explain my thinking of when I made that initial comment to you.
