Net.flame review, 2/4-2/11, by rabbit!jj. About 175 Articles. <whew!> Subjects that are still running: Wombats: the Wombat menace has been officially killed off. An article relates the actual demise of the wombat menace! Tailgating: Mostly restatement of previous articles and a bit of gratuitous ad-hominem flaming. The real issue now seems to be the intellegence/patriotic standing/economic welfare/responsibility of those who tailgate/roadblock. <Snore> Anti-tobacco comments: Still smoking away, mostly ashes now. Discussion on the merits of seatbelts, mandatory seatbelt laws, air bags, insurance as related to protective devices, contributory neglegence, and the like. From tailgating debate. See comments for tailgating heading. The subject of banks and banking regulations has continued. The two sides are "(*&^^(*^ banks" and "move your money". Seems like there's an opportunity for some useful comments here, but it hasn't been made yet. Two or three interested dogmatic types have been exchanging comments on the US economy and Reagan's (presumed) effects thereto. Comments about really weird TV advertisors. Current geographical areas under discussion are Seattle and Kansas City, Mo. Many more areas heard from by the end of the week. Frank Perdue and Crazee Eddie getting strongest mention, or at least the drawing the most hate. Many other entries now. Important to those who submit articles on advertisors. Comments spreading from elsewhere concerning government spending for psychic research. This has heated up a bit, with some pro/anti flaming, and some meta-flaming about the pro/anti flaming. One meta-meta flame. <sigh> New Subjects: None, really. Stale. mini-review. Lots of articles. Many words. Few thoughts. Bad week. Emotion and iconoclasts dominate. Facts and figures are hard to find.
