I have long enjoyed Mike Rowe's work on television show narrations, and, more recently, his outspoken values-driven commentaries on social issues. I also have been a fan of his 'The Way I Heard It' podcasts. Simply put, this is a brilliant rebuff of someone who truly deserved it. It's the mark I aim for when I respond critically to someone who has written something stupid in an online forum. It's a keeper!

BTW -- here's one of my favorite parts of his post, which will probably not be cited by others commenting on his remarks: "And really, I couldn’t care less."

Yeah, I'm a prig. It drives me crazy when I read the more commonly-used, illogical form -- "I COULD care less." And it makes me even crazier that frequent use has resulted in its being considered an acceptable variant for expressing the same thought...

So, you are like the Gestapo branch of the grammar Nazis? Letting us know in advance what you will tolerate and what you will not?
