both up and down.

SV: Practical jokes for mainframe systems programmers

2008-05-22 Thread Thomas Berg
Not for this kind of text.

You are absolutely right for informational or 
instructional texts, but not necesserily for this kind.

There is not wrong to expect some minimal intellectual 
understanding or at least basic social experience from 
the audience.

If that many people misunderstood, it was the author that failed, not the 
readers.

I'm surprised at how many people missed the point of this blog post.
The blogger was correct.
We have lost our sense of humour.

Did anybody read the disclaimer?
