Abstract
[Introduction] One of the high points of my career is the invitation from Cliff Lynch for the Spring 2019 CNI Keynote and his gracious introduction prior to my speaking. Unfortunately, I’ve since discovered that the antidote for a Cliff Lynch “high” is a negative review from David Rosenthal, a revered researcher with a storied career, a valued colleague, and occasional co-author. For example, in our research group our graduate students keep track of “DSHR points”, with a point awarded for each time Rosenthal mentions you or your work by name in his blog (Sawood Alam currently leads with six points, followed by Shawn Jones with three). The areas where Rosenthal and I agree are too numerous to list, so at the risk of sounding like the Emo Philips joke, I provide my response to his three part disquisition about my keynote (slides, video).
