Personalities (Score:2)

Well, he _does_ say:

If you make a personal statement about anyone I will delete your post.
No strikethrough's, no pleading to take the high road. Just deletion.
So stick to technology, formats, protocols, software, user issues, etc.
If you make a personal statement, the whole post will be deleted.

But, as you say, it's impossible to discuss this in any meaninful way without bringing Winer's personality into it.

  Well, he _does_ say ...
  
  But he didn't delete a comment where someone praised him, only when someone criticized him. And when called on it, he asked the guy to "edit" his comment instead of just deleting it. :-)
