ALL of this is theater. It just so happens that Louderback's play was hugely effective. There’s been 33 other articles written on the topic in less than 24 hours. I'd say he chose the exact platform to make that happen. Bottom line: the topic is important and the discussion essential. What are you griping about? - Amanda Mathew,

Perhaps it was done in reaction to Rubel's "open letter" apology (which seemed sincere enough). I agree that it’s strange.

I didn't say that it didn't matter, and I agreed that Steve probably shouldn't have said what he said -- what I don't get is why a guy like Louderback would respond the way he did. It's just unprofessional and seems to have been done for cheap theatrics more than anything else. I think you missed my point, Jeremy — or maybe I wasn’t clear.
