Doug, that is great to hear. When an author stipulates that they have not read certain content and encourages others to do so, they are admitting that there may be more to the story. Your feedback helps to develop that further. So far however, you have not refuted my claim. You have simply indicated that the author of the book was perhaps more thoughtful than you thought my article led people to believe. Again I offer -

…the James Surowiecki book — The Wisdom of Crowds. I won’t get into the book — I have never read it. Feel free to check it out for yourself.

Clearly you have and I hope others take the opportunity to form their own opinion. It is on my own reading list… but this TV series is likely to be canceled long before I get to it. Thanks for reading! And thanks for the feedback. George
