You're right, cle.general is better for having NO activity other than
crossposts about farm policy and AIDS. I figured to lighten things up
by starting a tongue-in-cheek pointless flame war. Something where
folks could engage in harmless sparring just for fun. This SHOULD
have been obvious to even six-year-olds.
"My exchange could beat up yours any day." Even with that, you still
couldn't see how the absurdity was completely intentional. Sigh.

<shakes head sadly> Of COURSE it makes absolutely no difference
what exchange you're calling from. I was trying to come up with a
flame war topic so completely meaningless, NO ONE could fail to
see its tongue-in-cheek nature.
I should have known better.

You are right about this, however.
