Oh yeah! Well, NNYYYAAAAAAHHHHH!!!   Ahem...

Anyone else bothered by how `hot' net.kids is becoming?  The tooth
controversy...  The (related) bottle controversy ("Oh, so you're afraid
your kid will embarass you.  What kind of a parent are you?  The guys in
the dorm will break him of that bottle habit.").  There's been a lot of
"shouting" going on, no?  This used to be such a nice, quiet forum. (With
the occasional person from another planet suggesting reasoning with your 2
year-old as they are just little adults. :-)).
