He did not reply. He deleted the comment (along with ostensibly dozens of others), and you can see his justification in comment #8. Clearly he did not address any of my points, and is not interested in an honest discussion.

The guy has lost all my respect. If he deletes this kind of comment than what else is he deleting? I thought of a number of his articles were quite good, but I can't trust someone who deletes comments that were based on this much consideration and experience. As far as I'm concerned he's an intellectual hack and I'll be avoiding his site from now on.

Honestly, were you expecting otherwise?

The kind of guy who would sincerely reply to your post would not have written the original article in the first place. Intellectual honesty does not seem to be one of his priorities.

Disappointing, but not surprising given the things I've seen written about him.
