Quite an interesting article. The best part is that the article does not judge. It simply lays down facts for us and leaves the opinionated part onto us.
Is this sarcasm? The article pretty clearly judges in an extremely opinionated way.
It's a shame it never actually stated the specification of the program. It seems like that would be the kind of thing you would need to know to form a fair opinion.
It might be, my intention was to highlight the fact that the article is laid down as a set of facts with no judgement. It's not like Charles was a hero. It just shows how Alan was rewarded. It's like reading something as simple as fate.
