I generally consider flame wars to be non-constructive and a waste of time. However, today's virtual fracas over hugs and vegetarians has proved quite interesting [for me anyway.] In the ensuing comments Chris Cunningham posted a link to a post by Mark Pilgrim which I found insightful and witty. Quote:
I must have missed the part where I was put under any sort of obligation towards you whatsoever.
This kind of affirms some recent thinking.
I've woken up today only to find that the world has gone mad. Earlier today it appears that a generous fellow GNOME user offered to give everyone [not only vegetarians] a big hug. Believe it or not, someone actually took offence to this. Madness.
