Well, this is prime example of how nowadays society in general ( not just in our community) we are not able to react even to a bit provocative observations with argument-only responses. Specially we as technical profession should be able to stay on argumented debate even in with emotions present. Anyone remember the techniques of disputes in European medieval universities? Then it was normal to be angry and emotional, but you should "ride you own anger" to get an energy for as better as possible disputing with your opponent, which mostly ends up with the best result. Much better than with isolated effort, without such dispute and without all the energy in emotions there. Emotions are therefore not to be suppressed but canalized towards the better end! > PS: (The qoute above is *not* what I think at all, about either Aida/Web or > Seaside ;-) I know I know :) Best regards Janko -- Janko Mivšek Aida/Web Smalltalk Web Application Server http://www.aidaweb.si
