1. It’s nice that he remixed it for you, and didn’t just criticize. But I did click over to his critique, and what an asshole. He could have said all that without sounding like a jerk. Don’t think i’ll go back to his blog.

2. If you want people to solve your problems for you, ask them. Of course, another option is to be competent enough to propose a plausible solution in the first place.

   Like, you know, not using a closed, proprietary file format to sum up comments on Web sites about a Web site. That sort of thing.

3. Good grief, can’t you guys just let well enough alone… who made you the final arbiter of “competency?” These blogs tried to improve the city and all you can do is nitpick.

4. No matter what people do with their good intentions, there are people who tear it down, and will find whatever angle they can to do so. So easy to do, eh Joe Clark? You have lots to say about things, but for some reason you can’t pull anything off like this yourself (though your histrionic dramatics about people who do give us all a kick).

   Figure out the social side of things too (whether you like it or not), because when you insult people first, or while you’re doing it, you’re as ineffective as excel or Wordperfect or whatever software you’ve got a dirty bone for that day.

5. I wonder if we might skip the flame wars and get back on track—everyone who has contributed their ideas and sweat-equity to this project deserves a pat on the back but we can all learn something from criticism. So, let’s keep it constructive not destructive.

   Many thanks.
