Can I chime in as a rhino-tools-dev lurker? Coming back with a complete final solution is good, but seeing how it was worked out is better. Most people, when posting a final solution, don't have time to write up a concise explanation showing how their code evolved, their false starts, etc. This is totally understandable and why I argue that it's good to talk about the solution while working on it. Regardless of whether you agree with that or not, I would like to think that we can all agree that calling someone who does this a spammer is completely out of line. Not only is it a patently false and inflammatory accusation, but the message that conveys the accusation is ironically much more spam-like than what's being complained about in the first place, since it's completely off-topic and worth less than nothing in the list archives (similar to my own message, I might add). For people who don't want to see a lot of list messages go by, there are email clients with a threaded display (like GMail), and there are digest and summary options available on the list. You may read this list any way you choose, or not at all. This is certainly not intended as a personal attack on Simone, but rather an attack on this particular behavior of complaining about people who use the list in a way someone deems inappropriate for one reason or another (which has, of course, occurred on every list since time immemorial). --Stuart --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Rhino Tools Dev" group.
