My response to you was perfectly polite, and cast no aspersions upon your character or your judgment. I simply stated a position which disagrees with yours, and explained my position. You responded with an inflammatory and insulting message containing very little besides personal attacks on me. You misinterpreted the only phrase (not even a complete sentence) which you commented on directly. When commenting on the motivations that would lead a writer to place an emotional scene in a superpower-created whirlwind, I said "The writer is unsure of his (ordinarily I'd say 'her or his', but this is comic book writers we're talking about)", obviously a wry, off-hand comment lamenting the superabundance of males in the field of comic writing. You called this "a general statement that all comic writers are sub-human". If this is your level of reading comprehension, then it is no wonder you can't understand Starstruck. Finally, you claimed that I dislike comics, a completely self-serving falsehood. If you wish to discuss this in a rational fashion, and are capable of so doing, then let us do so, and forget about your message and this one. Otherwise, I don't see any point in continuing. -=- Tim Maroney, CMU Center for Art and Technology ARPA: Tim.Maroney@CMU-CS-K uucp: seismo!cmu-cs-k!tim CompuServe: 74176,1360 audio: shout "Hey, Tim!"
