I see no personal attacks in his posting.

Matt's article was well written. Dan should apologise for his baseless
accusations.

Matt isn't attacking you. He's attacking your ridiculous copyright notice.

I'm amazed at how some otherwise intelligent appearing people, who can
do wonderful things like write software, can't seem to understand the
difference between personal attacks and professional criticisms of something
they've done or created.

Is debate dead? Can we not discuss the merits of something without someone
taking it personally?
