Why do policemen carry guns? Violence sometimes has to be
fought with violence.
Do policemen quietly observe a crime and then quietly
think "jeez I wish he wouldn't have shot that guy, but
I can't say anything to him about it".
Unfortunately, sometimes I think the MGS demographic
and the computer demographic are too far apart. The effect
is that this list has a very high percentage of people
who are not net or computer savvy.
That's wonderful really, the internet is not just for
geeks. But I think there are also a lot of users on this
list that don't know list etiquette. They see all this
Frank Zappa stuff and just assume that's the norm, and
join in.
MJB is the list mom here, but he's fairly quiet. I suppose
that is for the best, but on most lists the mom steps
in and ends these threads.
Perhaps he's too buried in email? ;>
