re: Kerry

I assume you mean this one.

The NYT article he references is also worth checking out.

I don't know. It is in college that people are taught that the inability to judge, or declare something good or evil, or come to a firm conclusion on a subject, is a sign of a vast and complex intelligence? In a computer, it would be a sign that there is a loop somewhere in your program.

It's kind of like the age-old Kirk vs. Picard argument in geekworld. Picard was brilliant, and would figure out all the angles before he did anything. But you had a sneaking suspicion that if you were stuck in the Kobayashi-Maru with Klingons coming out of warp all around you, you'd really rather have Kirk on the bridge. And despite the attitude, Kirk was no dummy either.
