I think any reader of boingboing should first consider if they are reading a specious argument designed to further the author's agenda. One should not use the comments at boingboing for reference material in this effort, unfavorable facts are sometimes removed from those.<p>Edit: I don't mean to rag on boingboing. They are what they choose to be and it works for them, but sometimes people mistake {headline,paragraphs} for journalism.
