Nothing to be offended about.
Exaggeration is common amongst...nearly everyone, including expert posters on this message board - I'm sure even me (NOT an expert!!) at times. Your willingness to dismiss one particular expert based on a possible(?)/probable(?) exaggeration about something not that relevant to the main point of his article diminishes your observation about that expert...to me at least.
Ok, maybe you should be offended? Or maybe not. But my earlier comment a couple of weeks ago about your posts stands - I think you bring a lot to the table here. We just don't agree on this.

OK. Maybe I should lay off the hyperbole a bit. In all honesty, I don't dismiss Cressey at all and probably will still be inclined to take him at his word on almost everything he offers. I just found that one statement to be a little off the wall.
