Very good! 

I like this article - a perfect example of pretty bad writing that this Keen guy is on about. Bitchiness, clumsy over-familiarity with the reader, taking a paragraph to explain why the author thinks HCF is a more appropriate phrase than LCD (amusingly this apparently better communication of a concept requires many more words to explain it), and some just plain bad sentence construction.

"Well, when he's done his apprenticeship in journalism, we'll see what he sees. I'm betting he'll learn!" - is this *really* something you want published under your name?

Hilarious stuff. A good laugh.

What a strangely written article, it took me a while to figure out what on earth the author was talking about. The article seems to be full of wibbling about rabbits with long tails and something to do with monkeys, so far as I can tell.
