I assume that watmath!pcmcgeer's recent article (watmath.2615) equating
social scientists, shrinks (presumably medical people with an interest
in mental medicine), journalists, and pinkos (I assume this is the
outdated slang for anyone tainted with a liberal ideal) was intended
to be satiric.  

If not, I would prefer not to associated in a community that so blithely
denigrates others.
