This is a well observed article, and certainly sums up the situation
here reasonably well. The one personal addition I'd make is that I do
not like discussions with people who descend to hurling abuse instead of
trying to prove their arguments. This is what got Kelsey into my kfile,
for example. I've no problem with discussing things with those who
/really/ do want to discuss, it just takes a lot of filtering to get to
that point!
