I appreciate the mail I got as a response to my flame, which I'm not
quite so angry about.  In summary, people said the following: "One
line comments mean nothing, because there is no reference to the
original thing commented on."  The problem is that while most netters
use readnews(1), I use notes(1) which allows you to read articles
and responses to articles as a single "note".  This causes confusion.
I understand now that the categorization on the net is a completely
different thing than censorship.  I apologize for being so heated in
my flame.
