Sean, I'm glad you posted that article, the more information our hobby gets
the better, it was an interesting tidbit worth sharing. I'm also glad you
kept the name in, it doesn't make sense hiding a name from the few hundred
people who read this list when it's already been seen by several hundred
thousand people in press accounts. When dealing with articles it's always
best to post them verbatim.
As far as the reaction goes, intelligent people know you are posting an
article, not writing an editorial. If they disagree with the substance
of the article and debate its points that's fine, but personal criticism
of the poster makes no sense. The option most people use who post
articles on lists and get that kind of personal response is to simply
ignore it, arguing with them is pointless, if they want to look foolish
let them. If they send you private flaming email you might want to
suggest interesting things they can do with certain parts of their
anatomy...:-)
Regards,
Demetrios
