• New York Times could use a breath of fresh air

    Posted on July 1, 2008 at 09:37 CDT by • Comment in the Forums

    I started choking when I read the op-ed piece in yesterday’s New York Times called “Windows Could Use a Rush of Fresh Air.”

    The article is so…. not right. I can’t even begin to list all the erros. The idea that Microsoft Research – the home of several of my current and former friends – is “where scientists and their heretical thoughts are safely isolated” beggars even my imagination.

    I could start ranting here, but Ed Bott has done a

    thorough job.

    Word to the wise: if you have heart problems, or are easily swayed by self-appointed experts, skip the NY Times piece and go straight to Bott’s analysis.
