The essence of his post is the comparison between RJ's work and BS's work and how primitive BS's work is in comparison.

The sweated "argument" that was used to prove this point shows 2 things. 1 - clearly demonstrates that New Yorker Sedai is not as familiar with the work as he claims to be since the "non-word" clearly appears many times before BS picked the series up. 2 - The "non-word" clearly is a word and drives one to question the veracity of the other observations pointed out in the post.

Suddenly, the rest of the claims in the post are scattering cockroaches in the light that was just turned on.

Just read ToM: Sanderson doesn't know High Chant, only common - 23/01/2011 08:03:17 PM 1809 Views

LoL - that discredits greatly the main post *NM* - 24/01/2011 04:27:45 PM 384 Views
No, it doesn't. It "discredits greatly" one of his points, not the main argument. *NM* *NM* - 24/01/2011 06:57:38 PM 382 Views

Or it could be that I read every book 5 times, but like 10 years ago - 26/01/2011 05:35:46 AM 703 Views

No, the "misused simile" thing is just a pet peeve - 24/01/2011 12:47:04 AM 953 Views

Is that really the case? A lot was cut from ToM? *NM* - 24/01/2011 11:16:05 PM 322 Views
Sweated is a word. *NM* - 24/01/2011 02:45:57 AM 381 Views
Is it? Would you ever write "I had sweated" or "having sweated for an hour?" *NM* - 24/01/2011 11:17:04 PM 361 Views
No, because it is not a participle. - 24/01/2011 11:36:12 PM 828 Views
Sure it is - 25/01/2011 11:31:29 AM 845 Views
No. I have written: I sweated a lot when I was in India. *NM* - 25/01/2011 12:16:39 AM 374 Views
Um, yes,. sweated is the past tense of to sweat. *NM* - 07/02/2011 03:37:58 AM 400 Views

Meh. I see no problem with this example. - 26/01/2011 07:10:53 AM 778 Views
If you hate his writing so much then don't read the final book. *NM* - 07/02/2011 03:39:43 AM 466 Views
I was kind of thinking this myself - 13/02/2011 10:50:07 AM 758 Views
