And time and again on this thread I've shown claims like this to be downright silly.

So you disagree with Kay's statements of yesterday?

I agree with many of Kay's statements from yesterday - especially the detailed ones. I do not agree with a blanket statement of "this was a [insert adjective here] intelligence failure." By him or anyone. It's not accurate.

But Dr. Kay does a fine job of clarifying exactly what he means, no matter what the headlines imply.
