Heh, I've even referenced this article myself.  I did, however, have
the sense to point out Dr. Meyer contradicts himself several times in
the course of this diatribe, even stooping so low as to perform
*exactly* the same disservice he so thoroughly chides Eric Raymond
for, in the process of chiding Eric.  Upon contemplation, this is a
poorly thought out impassioned plea masqeurading as a carefully
written philosophical discourse.
