On LW I found some articles about pjeby's teaching written by other people... and they seemed much easier to read. So yes, the style is probably a problem. When reading his blog, I drown in a sea of text, I am not certain about half of metaphors, and I have no clue which parts of the texts are the important ones. Well, at least some people are able to read and understand it.

Perhaps the best strategy for pjeby would be to teach his theories to someone else... and then let the other person write the book. It would also save his time. Oops, here am I, other-optimizing. ;-)
