Way, way overstated. Read it again. Notice that he restates his thesis at least a dozen times, then proceeds to restate his argument — articulately, to be sure — as well. While he makes some cogent points, this is an author who is clearly in love with his own voice.

He could cut this in half and still get his message across.

He could, but some people enjoy reading this prolific author's overstated arguments. I know I do. Just because you're on a word diet doesn't mean others need to cut their intake.

You must detest poetry.

Having written over 3,000 unpaid blog articles I guess it is fair to assume he feels his work has value. Lucky for those of us that agree!
