I started off thinking this was going to be an intelligent article. But this line pretty much sums up all of it:
"I have a friend who went to an Ivy League college after graduating from a typically mediocre public high school. One of the values of going to such a school, she once said, is that it teaches you to relate to stupid people."
I disagree. A lot of thought went into this very well written essay. Some of the author's criticism even applies to the new wave of dot-ly Silicon Valley startups.

That could have been the whole article.
