My response to people who don't like what I read or do
is a general "Why should I care what YOU think ?".
If they have a good (logical) reason then I'll
consider it, if not (just their personal opinion) then
I tell them to use 20 cents and call someone who
cares. If someone doesn't think (a relative term)
science fiction is worth while because they possibly
don't understand it, they should consider the average
person who doesn't know anything about computers and
considers users manuals a waste of time.

While I have not had the opportunity to examine the
article in question, I must say that some of the responses
in this digest have been, uh, unique.

	Let me say that a number of them lack a certain touch
of taste and lack of maturity.

	This is not meant as an insult, but how does one
expect to counter the comments of a very old (and somewhat
respected) periodical by flaming back and acting like an
adolescent?  A mature, well thought out approach would
work much better.

	Now that I have put my 2 bits in, I expect some flak,
but hopee I get some support.

	Until we get the final bugs out of the protocol,
Happy New Year, all.
