That is an opinion with no basis in fact. The reality is that his
detractors work for academic environments, AT&T, and commercial companies
of every size and shape. Including successful industrial enterprises like
DEC and national semiconductor.

Unfortunately, he doesn't know things like common courtesy or tact...

intelligent enough to recognize the arguments of others...
