Agreed that the cited paper is approaching ten years of age --
but would you do the kind service to the community of
pointing out just which are the "typical lies, half-truths, and
drive-by shootings" of which this paper is "full?"

I, for one, do not wish to repeat "typical lies, half-truths,
and drive-by shootings" in my advocacy of Ada.

Thank you, sincerely
