I am starting to get qutie tired of BLOGGERS BEHAVING BADLY and getting away with it. This is another fine example of how some of these more popular bloggers can turn their popularity in hopes of becoming celebrities.

In other words, he is really letting it all get to his head and giving bloggers a bad name.

That's fine, Kevin -- although the case he used to justify his opinion is wrong, and he lashed out at Stowe Boyd with an ad hominem attack for no reason. Oh, and "irregardless" isn't a word.

He said it sucked and explained why, so what?

Dave expressing his opinions has brought on a lot of vibrant discussion. Vibrant discussion often results in progress.

Irregardless of whether you agree with Dave on anything I'd hate to see the net become a politically correct only place.

Works on me. I never read him except when he's trashing someone. I guess I miss all his wisdom in between trash talking, but I can live with that.

True enough, Eric. I guess that makes me an enabler :-)

The Internet doesn't reward manners. Traffic flows to the latest online train wreck. It seems Dave W. feels he has to savage somebody every second or third week, in order to get a bit of attention. And it works every time...
