7. "The intuition behind these methods is highly appealing, but skeptics

   decry them as voodoo optimization techniques that rely more on nice analogies to nature than demonstrated computational results on problems that have been studied using other methods. The question isn’t whether you can get decent answers for many problems given enough effort using these techniques. Clearly you can. The real question is whether they lead to better solutions with less implementation complexity than the other methods we have discussed. - Skiena (The Algorithm Design Manual) Don't get too excited
