My opinion:

  1. RAO'K has a communication style which is sometimes a bit inflammatory.
  2. He also has some extremely valid things to say about programming in 
     Prolog.
  3. He frequently manages to convey his pearls in extremely erudite,
     eloquent prose which is a pleasure to read.
  4. As far as I can tell, he is amazingly sincere about his crusade, and
     astonishingly open-minded to the possibility that he may be wrong.
     His calls for an objectively better way of programming are laudable.
  5. I would hate to see his contributions curtailed because of some
     ruffled feathers and apprehensive superiors.

{Richard, Mr., Dr.} O'Keefe (what does one call you when not being freezingly
polite, anyway? :-) has contributed to my knowledge and understanding of
Prolog, and I hope he is permitted to continue without undue restrictions.
