I don't think Dave needs to "stand up to Jason or Graham or Spolsky" to give more value to his opinion. He's got enough star power by himself, though oddly the people posting on here at the moment seem to be blind to it. See http://500hats.typepad.com/500blogs/about-dave-mcclure.html

Thank you. I was blind, but now I can see...
Dave barely graduated from the Johns Hopkins University in 1988, with a BS in Mathematical Sciences Engineering and a minor in frisbee, billiards, and foosball.
Foosball? I had no idea. I take it all back.
In the future all disagreements between foosball players should be settled on the table where they belong. Does Jason play?
You're highlighting the throwaway line about 20 years ago at the end of a lengthy and impressive resume. I appreciate that you disagree with him, but that seems like a cheap shot.
I wasn't joking. I'd love to play any of these guys in foosball. For geeks, foosball is like golf for executives or football for Kennedys. I like how a 20 year old "throwaway line" can still bring us together. The only cheap shot intended here was my bank shot off my opponent's 3 man and into his goal.
