Thanks for your candor. | - some smart people are emotionally sensitive, but that is no reason | to lose their thoughts I think the best approach is to invite people over to an entirely different service where they can have some say over the noise level. Usenet with a volume knob, so to speak. Since the number of opinionated idiots on the Net is only increasing, and good people leave because people like you want to destroy what made it interesting to use the forum, there is no other option but to give the interesting people an opportunity to be relieved of idiots. | You probably can't expect a broad, evenhanded discussion here. /You/ sure cannot expect that. -- Erik Naggum, Oslo, Norway Today, the sum total of the money I would retain from the offers in the more than 7500 Nigerian 419 scam letters received in the past 33 months would have exceeded USD 100,000,000,000.
