Hear, hear!  And while we're at it, could we please keep Ayn Rand
and her ilk out of net.singles?  Were it up to me, I'd keep her
well, let's just say "stuff" out of net.philosophy also, but in
the interest of tolerance I'll just sigh and remember the words
of a wise (but perpetually untenured) philosophy prof I had once
upon a time and far away: "Junk is its own refutation."
