In less happy news, I've been Reviewer 2'd. Got comments back on a revised draft of a paper I submitted to a journal back in December. The gist of the comments:
Reviewer 1: They should've revised more, despite my not giving any specific direction about how that revision should look or what, exactly, needed revising.
Reviewer 2: This is dumb. I hate it. Reject this.
Reviewer 3: Publish as-is. They've addressed all the prior comments.

Some unsolicited advice here:
Profusely thank all your reviewers. Then you call R1 a dilettante (the editor probably already knows this) and attack R2 as a dinosaur. Praise to the heavens R3's attention to detail and depth of knowledge.
If you're going down, do it swinging.
