This newsgroup seems to have changed over the
years. When I started reading sci.nonlinear in
around 1991, contributions were so dry and hard
to follow that I thought there was too few emotion
in the newsgroup. Today we see Roger bringing in
his lively contributions. I am quite thankful for
seeing someone participate so vividly, but I think
we should refrain from starting flame wars and curse
at each other.

If someone disagrees with me, that's OK.
My learning often start with disagreements.
You can write a posting. But a constructive one please.
