Same old story. BartC spouts drivel, just like the RUE, or Nick "The
Webmaster" Greek, I'm in trouble for pointing it out. When he provides some
*EVIDENCE* to back up his claims then I'll more than happily back off. I do
not intend holding my breath, and I do not intend backing off. The Python
community cannot let itself get into a position whereby crap is spewed by
people and they're allowed to get away with it. You lot might also be
gutless cowards like he is, I'm not, and you might gather I'm not afraid to
say so.
For example asking for benchmarks that back up his claims is exactly like
asking the RUE for evidence to support his claims regarding the FSR, they
simply never appear. Why not?
Asking for evidence is not against the CoC. It's *how* you are asking.
There has been more vitriol and acrimony on this list in the past week
than probably the entire previous year, and much of it has come from
your keyboard.
Perhaps you should take a few steps back, mute a few of these threads,
and don't respond to BartC for the next week. Let matters calm down a
little, particularly in your own head. The list will appreciate it.

If everybody else would not respond to him he'd go away. We had to wait
something like 18 months to get rid of the RUE, surely we don't have to
go through that pain again?
