Nonsense. That's bull****.

That's an argument?

Actually, Roy, it's a vain attempt at humor. I should have known better.

To paraphrase _your_ remark, one of the quickest way for a newsgroup to
degenerate is ... for people like you who should _also_ know better
to start giving lectures on behavior to other people you've never met.

Why you feel you should impose your own demands on complete strangers is
your own affair. In the meantime, please spare the long-suffering regulars
in this group the display of pomposity. Moral reformers have come and gone
here for years now, and another round of "thou shall's" or "thou shall
not's" is hardly necessary.
