I miss Ben. At least he knew that he was rude.

I for one am getting very annoyed at the constant ranting and raving
lately and especially the snide and rude remarks. I try to assume
since there are many non-english speaking people or ones with whom
english is not their first language on the list that sometimes it
might just sound rude but not really be rude because of the language
translations. But there are a couple of people that have been just
plain rude. Insulting "the whole list" and accusations that 'real
programmers would never work this way" or " I am used to decent tools"
etc.
I am also getting fed up with the references to "better" programs and
or languages like Pascal, FORTRAN, VB, Delphi, Java, or Word. If they
are so great then I must ask "Why are these people here?" , "Why not
just go back to these 'superior' products/languages?"
I am trying to learn Transcript and could care less about these other
languages. I am trying to become proficient with Transcript not with
VB or Delphi. I do mind about how Rev progresses and grows and I for
one don't want it influenced by these other languages or programs at
all. Instead of saying that we all should change because these people
don't like it or are not used to it, I suggest rather that these
people learn to adapt to this far superior way of 'simple' coding
style instead of wasting so much list space with all this nonsense.
Now maybe I am just having a bad day and maybe not, but I think some
of this is going too far.
