Haha. I read larsrc's confident comment and thought, ah, the blogger must have been wrong. Then got to the equally confident replies and realized everyone's confident and coherent on HN (vs confident and ranting looney on the general internet) and I need to calibrate my gullibility :P

Assume 99% of everyone on the internet is wrong and incorrecting each other.

And yes this means if half say C and half say Not-C they both are 99% wrong. :)
