Lawrence Summers' Controversial Remarks At Harvard

Link
To read what Lawrence Summers said that caused such an outcry, go here. I was impressed at how "middle of the road" his remarks are. I was even more impressed at the fury the remarks have provoked. Read here, for example. The opposing point of view is on Wizbang. (I agree with WizBang.)

It's actually a little disturbing that Summers' comments, which were couched in such academic and hypothetical terms, and which were expressly intended to provoke scholarly comment, have led to calls for the man's resignation.
