But I explicitly refer to "DSM-CRITERIA". The Debian user list is for black and white, atheists, Christs, Moslems, gay, heterosexual etc. and also for people who fit to something written in the DSM-5 or ICD-10. Maybe Stan's wording was bad, maybe it wasn't bad. It just was one post among others, no big deal. This one mail became a discussion with arguments like, "mails as Stan's make people staying away from Linux, they will use Apple and Microsoft" and "Stan has got a mental disorder". Assumed the OP should feel offended by Stan's mail, the OP simply could delete the mail. If somebody with a Tourette's syndrome cross your path, would you feel offended, if this person would "swear" or would you simply ignore it? _______________________________________________ D-community-offtopic mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/d-community-offtopic
