Put Bluh on probation, kinda like Robert

Downey, Jr. - Matt — 7/16/2001 8:05:15 AM (archived)

Bluh has a very active imagination, and his/her posts are thought provoking at times.

I completely understand, however, the exasperation of Nick, Phil and others who have attempted to explain things to Bluh, only to realize they’re wasting their time and energy. It seems to show a lack of respect for their knowledge and expertise.

Bluh’s problem isn’t one of ignorance, for we’re all ignorant in one area or another. It’s a lack of care and discipline when posting, and apparent unwillingness to critically review and assimilate the feedback and corrections provided to him/her.

I vote for letting Bluh stay, for now, if for no other reason than giving us something interesting to talk about (and correct) once in a while, and for the sheer pedagogical challenge of teaching Bluh, and helping Bluh learn. That's the main reason I'm here - to learn.
