Well ... he said the idea behind the computing was all wrong; that the guy
didn't have a complete enough understanding of computing and thus he
couldn't really appreciate the metaphor that he tried to construct with it,
although he could see where the guy was going with it. So yes to one, no to
two. He was looking at it from a technical rather than philosophical
viewpoint (and he doesn't suffer wanky theorists like ourselves gladly (: )
