universally negative that I've more or less given up on trying
to make that point.

My impression is that majority opinion in this group is on your side
here. (I keep being surprised by postings in the opposite sense, though).
Maybe this has something to do with net.attitudes ? (the purpose of
posting is of course to point out where someone else got it wrong,
not where they got it right, after all).
