highly relevant to readers of the list. But of course it would be<br>
silly<br>
of me to do that. And likewise I thought it was silly for someone to just<br>
post an article here without much explanation as to why (excluding "it's<br>
interesting", because I read 20 articles a day you'd all find interesting,<br>
but I don't post them here).<br>
<br>
So in futile hope of discouraging silly conduct, I asked if perhaps there<br>
was more of an explanation (which, by the way, was not rhetorical). Of<br>
course I know that I can't fix people who are "wrong on the internet" by<br>
suggesting they stop being wrong, and that saying nothing may have been<br>
better, but you know how it's best to just ignore bad drivers when they cut<br>
you off? Sometimes you've still gotta give them the finger, even if it's<br>
not going to make a damn difference.<br>
