Could be; which might also explain Seth’s first comment (It went right over my head?). Hmm. Maybe if the Edge piece hadn’t seemed so serious (on skimming: I haven’t read it in depth yet) I would have picked up on the humor.

Oh well. I’ll leave the post as is, with these comments pointing out my obtuseness. Making it a double touch of irony, I suppose.

And, of course, that Edge article serves as verification that the Wikipedia entry is correct–after all, it’s on Lanier’s own piece. [I'm so pleased to be obscure enough NOT to have an entry in the English Wikipedia...and to have the German stub just sit there. Not that I've checked lately...]

It was annoying.
