&gt; <i>You should really think before spouting off, and you should honestly admit if you&#x27;re biased in this instance.</i><p>The ivory tower comment which you complained about up-thread read to me as &quot;this is a possible cognitive mistake we might make, let us avoid it&quot; (note that it used the word &quot;us&quot;).<p>On the other hand, there is no charitable reading of the first line of your comment.  It&#x27;s just nasty, much nastier than the even the worst reading of the ivory-tower comment.<p>&gt;:(
