Who do you respect and I'll see if they've commented on it yet.

I'd rather it be someone who the nega-coiners (you know who you are) respect.

And they don't even have to tout bitcoins -- just say something to the effect of "it's not a ponzi scheme" or "the idea has potential" or "it is an interesting concept" or "it is making me think outside of the box"

For all the anti-coin balderdash that gets spewed by some, I have to believe that they at least (secretly) recognize that bitcoins present an interesting innovation in regards to the status quo, and while bitcoins may or may not have staying power, they will likely usher in a new era of currency and payment systems, or at least force financial markets and governmental bodies to think about them in a new way
