Totally agreed!  I'm not against flaming (gee, can you tell??) but I
wouldn't ever type anything I don't mean, and I won't face up to.  For
example, if I say something entirely derogatory (sp?), then I should
face the music if the person I say it to decides to complain to my isp
or whatever.

People who send flame mail or flame in Usenet using a nickname and
fake e-mail address are, IMO some of the biggest chickenshits on the
net - they are so afraid of retribution, so afraid of anyone knowing
who they are, they cower in their little dark computer rooms, spewing
flames that don't even singe..
