obviously I don't live inside the head of Steve Yegge.  However, I get the 
feeling, the fact that we are discussing things like we do on this thread 
may one of the things he tries to achieve.  Yes, he seems to have a tendency 
to exaggeration.  You probably have to exaggerate sometimes to drive a minor 
point home.
