Indeed true.  And dissent should always be welcomed.

But perhaps Goodger's post can be better understood in light of the fact that
Gillies routinely flames the Mac.  In fact if I see a post by Gillies I bet
myself ahead of time that it's going to be a flame against the Mac.  And
usually it is.  Continuous criticism does get old after a while.  Real old.

Perhaps Goodger had this in mind.  Perhaps not.
