Yeah, Mark Pilgrim should have used his considerable power to influence geopolitics; rather than highlighting some interesting element of design he could have helped end war or famine!

Nothing against Mark Pilgrim, I just felt like sharing the way reading this made me feel. I can't explain to you why some things do this, it's a rare occurrence.
