I actually have one of Tom Ang's books "Digital Photography Masterclass" and I can tell you that nowhere in there have I read to never shoot in raw. He does, and post processes his work and even goes so far as to show you several examples and techniques.
He does state that it's slower to write to memory, but the advantages far outweigh the disadvantages. The only other caveat I can think of is that you can possibly do a worse job processing an image than your camera might, but that's why you keep an original and work in layers.
Oh, as others have mentioned... Ken Rockwell is awful, full of bad advice. Once in a while you can find a nugget of information, but take anything you read there with a grain of salt.
