and this is the crux of my theme lately, that there is not much point in writing articles and having a forum like this if it is only to preach to the converted.
There are objective metrics which measure how widely cited and discussed someone's writings are. You ought to review those and, that way, you won't have to speculate about whether what someone writes is disseminated only to a forum of "the converted."
I should also note that it hurts my feelings when you say these mean things about what I'm writing and, through the pain, I find myself wondering why you have to invoke such a mean-spirited and attacking tone, even after your apology, which I graciously accept.
