> Looking forward to your down-votes. Instead of arguing, it's much easier to shout and jeer and press the downward facing arrow. I expect nothing less since we haven't taught critical thinking in most public schools for quite some time.

I believe that's uncalled for. If you're looking for a discussion, that's not the way to go about starting it. You're just turning it hostile before it can even begin; what sort of response do you expect from such hostility?

Have you been to HN before? Unpopular opinions are not refuted, they're down-voted.

The joke here is that I say "HN readers down-vote things they don't like instead of making cogent arguments refuting the veracity of unpopular claims" and you go ahead and down-vote me. Never change, HN.
