Sorry about posting this here Dale I couldn't figure out where else too.
Io9's continuing slide down shit creek goes on...they are letting Prisco do Book reviews now or at least lifting his reviews from Kurzweil's AI site.

This is the guy who has admitted having no actual knowlage of computers...genius.
