I suspect there’s only one participant in this thread that has.

Obviously between the “why is alex upset the question was answered strictly” and “ianzin commendably looked directly at empirical studies and stayed away from any analysis, thoughtful speculation, or subjective evaluation of the studies or anything else” I realize I’m not going to convince this crowd any different.

Just record my sentiment that the style (in a deep way, not superficial wording) was very different from Cecil’s. I found it less open-minded, less exploratory, and less enthralling to read. I guess that’s why these things are call staff reports. I mean if Dexter Haven feels this is the way it’s supposed to be, that’s fine. I just really took issue with the other thread that said “wow, I almost thought this was Cecil.”

Just your sentiment. Everyone else liked it.
How is it pronounced? I’ve now had to read it several times without knowing. Does it rhyme with help? With gulp? Or do you go the long way, saying En Ell Pee? 
Which is your STOP? … thinking about it.

Hi AskNott. NLP is always pronounced as an acronym, “En Ell Pee”.
