I'm the author. This work was inspired by a submission I wrote to Reddit's /r/truefilm forum. Based on that original essay I then fleshed it out and added stills and video clips to better make the argument. Interested readers will find the original post here:

That means YOU get to post the next one.

lol. Thanks! It's coming. Perhaps 15K words or so. Different topic though. A novel is coming soon too. Though that won't be free. BTW thanks for posting. I found hubski through the referrer links. Never heard of the site but the S/N here is quite good. Reminds me of the early days at reddit back when spez had the site server in his Davis Square apartment.

I think the idiot control here is a great deal better as well. It's a promising site, a promising idea, and a good group of people.

I read that first as 'idiot in control'.

Too bad, really, because 'idiot in control' definitely would've earned kb a badge.

That statement is also true, despite the fact that I did not make it. ;-)

Ha, and I was thinking: 'goddammit, I just started following him again.'
