Wow, that seems like a pretty definate statement to be offered without
examples, wouldn't you say? I would be interested to know not only
your opinion, but how you arrived at it. Note that this is not a flame.
I just bought the book and if I am going to be wasting my time, I'd rather
not read it. I would, however, like to know how you came to your conclusion.
