Huh? How many can you count?

Seriously, it's not a knee-jerk reaction. More like an elbow-jerk.

Like what everybody else said earlier, it is Standard Operating
Procedure as taken from the `Universal Instruction Manual of the
Association of Software Entrepreneurs and Pirates', published sometime
before I was born.

If that's your take of the people here in PLUG, then why are you still
in this list, given that (a) you too have a remarkable (to say the
least) history in the list, and that (b) you seem to have such a
$FAVORITE_MOVEABLE_BODY_PART-jerk-and-full-stop reaction on many
controversial topics on this list?

If all you really want to say is `I HATE YOU ALL DAMN FSCKER FOSS USERS
WHO BASH M$ AND CRAP!' then say it! I would speculate that many will be
pleased.

You could have just simply said `Zak, not all the time M$ sucks, come
look at the bright side, we have the commoditization of computing to
thank them for' and I would have really appreciated that, because I try
to appreciate everything in life (even if it seems to be crappy, or full
of crap, like M$), and I try not to be rude.

But NO, you just prune and graft a new thread simply stating your
disgust at people (and implicitly, at yourself too) in a public mailing
list.

For me, that's a waste of inodes, filename pointers, IDE-bridge and CPU
and network bandwidth, and not to mention space.

I still remember your procmail recipe for filtering my address to
/dev/null. Please don't force me to be rude and to use it on you.
