Years ago, the British SF writer Brian Aldiss wrote a story about a
television news team <nn> years in the future who specialized in
interviewing victims and relatives of victims...with emotions chemically and
electronically enhanced to make a better soundbite. At the outset of the
story, the team leader announces, "Have your hatreds ready!" Ever since
reading that story, whenever I hear someone loudly and publicly proclaiming
a point of view which is obviously for media consumption, I think of that
statement: "Have your hatreds ready!" Too many people on this list, ISTM,
have their hatreds loaded and cocked, ready to be fired off at the drop of a
viewpoint. Perhaps Kris should something to the Disclaimer along of the
lines of "Check your hatreds at the door."
