aron,

I know you don't mean this, but it would seem that you are throwing this out to stifle honest and righteous critique/commentary on the LRC and its errors. Yes, we need to examine ourselves before we point at the errors of others. But if there are errors to be pointed at, this was not given as a reason to refrain, just to be sure that you don't give them strawman arguments to pitchfork the argument back to you. And like it or not, as a species, humans are predisposed to strawman arguments when it takes the light off our own shortcomings and errors.
