This is interesting ... it is the second time today I get flamed for
writing followups in CAPS. Why do people find it comparable to shouting or
at least find it disturbing ? Any psicologist or analist out there who
can explain this ?

Do not worry too much anyhow, and do not take all this stuff too seriously.
Most new technologies start up in anarchy and sooner or later get regulated,
it happened to radio broadcasting, TV, C.B., aviation, etc. It will happen
to Internetworking as well, but we will survive ... (I hope :-) :-) )
