To some extent it's rather unfair game on my part to respond to Mr.
Moen given his killfile filter (publicly known part), but I still

than Groklaw itself. 'PJ' wants more journalists to use the site as a

says are incorrect, followed by 'PJ''s characterization of them, and my
response -- at times taken directly from Groklaw."
