Your entry about Opus Dei is currently in the Update Forum.
If you've got a moment, you might want to check out the new version...

btw: How've you been? Doing anything fabulous lately? I'm just doing the same old thing -- waiting for DD to reach 99, watching my kids grow up, drinking a 
or three...

I've seen the update - it's a compromise between my deep-rooted skepticism of the Opus Dei and his fervent admiration for it.
Things here are fabulous - I'm developing lots of new projects, have a wonderful team who I'm responsible for (poor lambs).
How's life in Philidelphia? How is the family?

Family is growing up rapidly - my youngest is starting school in the fall. 
So no more babies 'round the house...
And how is it that they gave *you* a position of authority? 
If someone doesn't finish their tasks on time to you slug them with the 
? 
As far as the entry, your version was a bit cynical, but the update strikes me as being too breathless. In the UR thread I said it sounded like it was written by a publicist for Opus Dei (and it bloody well was!). The tone and the fact that they bothered to come to h2g2 and fix that entry makes me think your original version was spot on!
Cheers!

Re the article - I tend to agree, it is very difficult to strike a balance when one side is an ardent fan and the ther an ardetn cynic. I am heartened to see the Community are not letting themseves be bullied into submission.
