And YOU please don't resort to name calling.
What does netiquette say about "flaming?"

By the way, some of the more prominent and respected participants in this
newsgroup post OT material from time to time. . .people like Rod Mollise,
Brian Tung, Jon Isaacs, and John Steinberg to name only a few. Is there any
particular reason they have escaped your verbal abuse?

Want to have some real fun? Go to any thread where a war is raging about
Macs or Windows. You'll find lots of OT posters to insult.
