See Ken flame. Flame flame flame. See everyone and their sunday-school teacher take Ken too seriously. Responsibility Responsibility Responsibility. Ken is going to cause the eventual downfall of civilization (Can you say civilization? Nice try.) As We Know It. Anarchy Chaos No Parking Places. Despite Ken's rather unique flaming style, I thought Don had a good point. I love to read the net for different writing styles; Spaf, Chuqi, Rich and Ken all go about writing in different styles, and all of them are (usually) fun for me to read. If we had to second-guess everyone's level of reading skill, net articles in general (and ALL forms of stylized writing, in specific) would be about as bland as generic Tofu. So let's give the net police a rest, shall we? If you have a problem with someone's grammar, at least MAIL them the notice; frankly, I could care less. "Pfui."
