Please desist with the ad-hominem ("literal-minded idiots," "brain
shutting down," etc.) attacks. Please stop arguing about the
argument itself ("can't follow a discussion for more than two
articles," "come up with some new arguments," etc.). Please stop
accusing others with whom you disagree of various sorts of ritual
uncleanness, invoking mystical murmurings about poor software
engineering and virus-based licenses. Please try to restrain your use
of emotionally-laden terminology - it just might light someone's fuse,
and neither the match nor the explosion is welcome.
Get up from your desk, walk to the other side of the office, pour
yourself a cup of (decaffeinated!) coffee, and watch the snow for a
while. You'll feel better, and so will everyone else. I did, and I
do.
thanx -len
