That Wired Article - What Rory Thinks about Fred Vogelstein

[Update: It looks like people don't understand why I was so pissed. The short version is that, yes, the general tone of the article is positive, but a lot of it isn't true. It's irritating when you're close to something and you know just how messed up Read More
