A few words about the matter: Flames don't outlast the message, Flamewars don't outlast the thread. What are the causes of these? The total system. If the works of the total system can't last forever, how much less can anyone else's, in fact? So do business with Unix people. Unix people are one with Unix, Power people are one with Power, (Lusers are one with Lossage.) Being one with Unix people, Unix must be happy with them. Power too is happy with them. (Even being one with lusers counts.) Trusting's not enough, in fact; Having's not trusting, either.
