Up until (and through) your post, I agree.

I see posts from individuals who automatically tend to take posts from others the "wrong" way, based on past history.

I have no idea who Patrick Chen is (well, now I know he's a microsoft programmer), but it seems important to the OP. I just read it as "article on Umpiring from a non-umpire".
