I know, it is a bit mean (not intentionally though). Although I tried to make up for it by posting this right after. You should check that piece out, since it involves a big ethical dilemma that Ben is keen to follow up on.

I'd like it to be clear that Dave alone was mean. Not me. I'm in the readers corner. I'm the reader's advocate. Think of me in a sweater vest. And how elegant is that dual row of clues above? They're just so nearly identical. You won't get Dave to notice that. Only me. I'm there for you.
