The praise is also written from a place of ignorance too. People love it and they don't know what it is. If you can't explain it to a five year old, then you don't understand it. And if we don't understand, it's a horrible idea to fork over our security to it. We don't want to rely on a box full of ADE 651 bomb detectors.
You're an idiot.
Are you serious?
No. Sorry.
