Warning: If you don't understand the concept of "subtle joke," don't read this. In article <ld5vdbINN763@news.bbn.com>, mjensen@BBN.COM (Martin Jensen) writes... > > If you don't have anything else to offer, I, for one, would > appreciate it if you would go find another thread to flame. > This, for all of you who haven't been hanging out on alt.flame, is what's known as the "self righteous" flame. Some people think of this as a contribution to the discussion, but, in fact, it's just as much of a flame as Ehud's (or even Carl's) writings. Because the poster has chosen timely, genteel words, you may have been fooled into believing that Mr. Jensen was not flaming. Wrong. Coming out in a public forum and dressing someone down for their real or imagined behavior in a way which is out of the charter of the newsgroup is just as serious a crime, no matter how you write it. In fact, one might argue that Mr. Jensen is guilty of even worse a crime than Mssrs. Gavron and Lydick, since his posting contained no technical information at all, while those he accuses of malfeasance at least brought out data of some sort (even if hidden in invective which Mr. Jensen's mind cannot sort from content). If Mr. Jensen wasn't a brain dead slime breath pond scum hypocrite, he would have sent the message directly to Carl and Ehud, and saved the rest of us his mindless mumblings. Damn this pisses me off!
