Joseph- I believe your observational descriptions of cluttering/stuttering is pretty accurate, since quite a bit of your statements run parallel with my...
All, Thanks for posting this, Joseph. He introduces some interesting ideas, but I feel that as an opinion piece, he's missing some critical information about ...
