That is what *you* read into it: as long as we understand that this viewpoint is not necessarily shared by others, I don't have much problem with you believing that. But please do not ascribe motives to others: you just don't know what they do or do not consider acceptable. IME, flame wars erupt and eventually die down, but not before they have done some damage. Whatever damage has been done in this case is done and we can't do much about it. But it behooves us (all of us) to limit the spread. I repeat: if you cannot stand Jambunathan K., or if Jambunathan K. cannot stand Samuel Wales or ... cannot stand ... (fill in the blanks), there is an easy solution: do not read the offending messages. But in any case, do not reply in an uncivil manner and if you cannot be civil, do not reply at all. Nick PS.
