Peoples need for instant gratification and refusal to wait to know everything is getting out of hand. It's way nicer to get a peak behind the curtain and have to read between the lines and speculate a little than not get anything.

I hear you. It's not about instant gratification though. It's about whether you are being told the truth and whether you can discern between insight and hot air. No longer living in Calgary, so I have never been. If you really do get a sense of their thinking then that's great. It's hard to tell from some of the tweets and such.
Maybe it's more about my issues with Burke. I think his work is generally OK. I just get tired of his bluster and I really don't believe much of what he says.
