In the end, I could see that the point she made was important. It's true, she uses bad examples in many places, her writing is dense and disorganized, and her comma usage is atrocious. I found that if I could distill her meaning out of the frustrating morass that I agreed with her. So, she's a smart person who brings together some heretofore disparate theories. It just could have been better written.
