Do you realise that there are forces out there trying to destroy "Open Source"?

Which isn't to say that PJ shouldn't call them out. A simple
"They said this, and they were wrong" without the breathless
verbiage would be easier to take seriously for newcomers to
take seriously (I can't be the only one who automatically
discounts emotional rants), while also being easier for your
regular readers to skip the part of the song they already
know.

Perhaps you read too much into the article
Authored by: Anonymous on Friday, November 23 2012 @ 09:17 AM EST

I see P.J. identifying she held back commenting on what FM provided because there was no source. Then she mentioned the source that could be trusted provided the document and it contradicted what FM provided.

Then she outlined a couple possibilities why FM might have outlined what he did. Raised the specter of what else might be incorrect - but can not be verified.

Identified how difficult it was just to keep up with all the misinformation and that when you're discussing Legal matters accuracy was important.

Finally advised that readers should take what they're reading with a grain of salt unless they can verify the information from an actual reliable source - like the Court itself on Court rulings.

That's what I read in the article.

Perhaps you read too much into the tone of the authoring. Or perhaps you can point to specific words indicating why you see the current article as being a bit shrill - or perhaps this article doesn't fit the definition and you were just posting your suggestion here.

To provide another opinion as a reader: Sorry, I just don't see the shrillness in either the words or tone of the article you seem to see. I don't see any difference in this article from the ones that pointed out where Enderle and Co. had gone wrong and the advice that one should look to the actual Court filings.
