You're kidding, right?

Thankfully, your interest in young languages does not concern me, nor does 
your show-off behavior, so I couldn't care less about your choice of words.

The rest of your stuff has been answered off list, to bring this stupid 
thread to a halt.

Zeev, you start to bore me.  If you didn't notice it yet,
yesterday's email already constituted my EOT contribution.

So, now, explicitly for you, EOT.

 As with PHP's featureset, php-dev is not a purists' place.  To each his

So far, it appears you're the one who woke up on the wrong side of bed one 
day and decided to go out with a noble quest to change the world for 
everyone, and calculate just by how much you would change it, too.  If you 
intend to start applying your rules to email traffic on php-dev, all I can 
say is, try it next millennium (if you actually read the messages and not 
just analyze them with your pathetic script, maybe you would notice that 
that is what I said).  I'm fine with the way things are, and that's the 
last breath I'll spend on this not-very-intelligent topic.  I'll respond to 
your actions as necessary.

  The Hebraicum would be of no use here, because it covers Old Hebrew.

[PHP-DEV] Update: Quoting behaviour exposed

After looking at a few messages again, I noticed that my

Once these are kicked out, we see a far worse picture (the

 5%: = 12.50
10%: = 6.75
15%: = 4.50

And the top 10 again (messages with a ratio = 3):
