Personally, I find it to be a significant lapse in his ethical judgment."
It's worth reading. Tim's response to the comment is also worth reading (though I disagree with his specific argument singling out tort lawyers): http://radar.oreilly.com/2008/08/why-were-failing-in-math-and-science.html#comment-563680
