Clay was referring to Lambert's version of Ring of Fire not the man himself. Love how you manage to take everything out of context! While I personally do not believe he owed an apology to anyone because he is entitled to his opinion I applaud him for his maturity in doing so. I also will state he was TOTALLY ACCURATE ON ALL COUNTS! Mr. Aiken did not state that everyone should focus on world poverty instead of AI, He was referring to bloggers such as yourself, who LOVE to DISTORT EVERYTHING TO THEIR ADVANTAGE.

I don't understand, either, why you have a problem. Everyone makes mistakes. I think it was a good thing for Clay to admit his choice of wording was poor (even though I agreed with every word). And why is it "self-righteous"? Sounds like he called it pretty accurately to me.

I have no beef with his apology. Don't understand why you do.
