: Thanks Alex, as usual bring the list back down to earth. Well except for some.
: It was almost as fun as reading the article to see edhall@weirdnoise.com and
: "Digita'lis /" <erichward@hotmail.com> make abject fools of themselves replying
: seriously to Alex's latest satirical (or admittedly semi-satirical) post.
You're only proving my point, Peter, by reinforcing the whole "gotcha"
mentality that is becoming ever more popular on the list. You'll note
that I made no criticism of Alex's satire, but rather took up the same
issues from a flatly non-satirical point of view.
Elitism will ultimately administer its own cure, as the in-group thins
itself down to one individual and the poseurs are all identified and
properly mocked. That's been the end-game of many a special-interest
mailing list (or other such group), but I'd rather it not happen to
this one.
