It's as if someone were proposing that the arabic numeral set and Add/Subtract/Multiply/Divide calculators made possible by it - are inferior to their sincere insistent proclamation that unicode cuneriform on clay tablets was inherently superior. and then went forth shilling THAT.

From the reading I did in the comments it's just a couple guys who started with an important sounding name, who actually have no influence or authority. I think I'll start a group called the "Center for Americans for Disclosure in Programming" and start shilling for Open Source. That might be official sounding enough to get some attention, like these chumps. ;)
The problem is, that this is going to be some very effective FUD.
