Sutton-
I am really pleased with the reaction to this article I wrote last night, just to blow off steam from a long day at work. I didn't really pimp it at all, but since it's gotten a good response I thought I would push a bit. Take a look if you have time today. Thanks

This is different for me because normally prefer opinion or humor/satire, but I was asked to take a look at it, so I did.

I'd appreciate any feedback on the analysis side you may have for future such articles.

Be forewarned....its a longer piece, so grab some coffee.
