The reason you are unpopular has nothing to with what you say.  It is
that you don't participate in discussions. You just pontificate from
on high. It implies a sort of haughty superciliousness that people are
reacting to.

Buddha taught that the universe is ineluctably a single interconnected web of cause and effect, which is my haughty preamble to this observation: it depends on the newsgroup.

comp.lang.lisp is cool so here Xah participates as a normal contributor.

ps. The "Failed Attempt At Witty Comeback" lines are now open. Plz dial carefully. k
