Well, there are people who do deadpan all too well, and I've seen *that*
be taken too seriously. Plus there was something major on another list
I'm on, sometime during the spring of last year, that wasn't even as
sharp as sarcasm, that started one heckuva flamewar, and when a crucial
detail was explained at a meeting of some of the listmembers, there were
people in *tears*. So I've seen or known about worse, but not lately,
and not here.
