I'm not qualified to comment, as I have never listened to or read any of their stuff. I expect they probably would be, otherwise they wouldn't be so polarising. I know people like to say they're all about "logic and reason" but that's rarely true.

That’s strange. Bolt’s columns are posted here regularly. You’ve even commented on them.

But fair enough. Do you think Pickering is emotionally driven?

Pickering that other wanker who used to be on the project?

I don't know. Does that actually prove anything?
How many journos do we have left? It's a declining population but there must still be 1500? 2000?
Whether they win an award, they are still very successful.

I think you'll find I comment on others reactions and comments. These mainstream talking heads aren't exactly bringing revolutionary ideas that've never been heard before.
