You're a "huge Kurzweil critic" one reply back, now you're railing against the sins of his "naysayers"?

I simultaneously have issues with Kurzweil's tendency to be overly generous with his "Mostly Correct/Correct" categories (check out my comments in other threads) - yet, at the same time believe it's important to look beyond the nitpicking of minor details. In the _specific_, Kurzweil is overly generous - but I think it's important that we don't lose sight of the fact that the general arc of his predictions, are, in fact, pretty good.
Critic is not necessarily pejorative. A critic can point out the good and bad.
From: http://www.thefreedictionary.com/critic
Critic: One who forms and expresses judgments of the merits, faults, value, or truth of a matter.
