Ok, so it is a bit fun to hear someone reasoning about coffeescript is not worth to learn, and have a published book about coffeescript in the meantime. OTOH he should have been really met coffeescript, and know coffeescript :)

While CoffeeScript might not change the way some people think, teaching people CoffeeScript to change the way they think is a noble effort.
