Talking.

et — 4/17/2006 9:17:25 PM (archived)

Listen, there's plenty of acrimony associated with this thread, but it's not a "threat" thread. It's for the most part, a technical discussion with much discourtiousness. However with a contentious issue here at the HZ, even on space, when has it EVER been different? The sooner you let it go, the sooner this thread will fall below the line. It's already over. Moving on...

We know that some here need to overprint every issue possible with their political and psycho-social opinions and that has dragged this thread a bit from a scientific-technical discussion. But it happens all the time. Even here on Space. To single this thread out is unfair, and my foul language aside, I resent it.

Come-on buddy, Voltaire up. :)
