Each of you claims this is sickening. Each of you is exaggerating. This is not conducive to rational discussion, is it?

I don't see where Randaly called anything "sickening" (maybe a different comment than the one you are responding to? or pre edit?). I have gone so far as to call poor reception "disappointing", which I would not say is an exaggeration.

I don't agree with the equivalency of arguments you are implying.

I edited out that part, since I think mwengler had a good point: it added nothing to my argument and was insulting. I also slightly edited the tone of the rest of the comment, but didn't change anything of substance.
