The criticism section is extremely biased. Neutral Wikipedians are requested to rewrite that section without the heavily biased approach of the current criticism section.
I agree, the section needs a complete rewrite, but can some one at least remove some pointless paragraphs? for example the one about the very big big critic? ExE 00:40, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
