	Before attempting to remove the speck from portal's eye, perhaps we
should remove the beam from our own (well, what did you expect from a guy
who names his computer aquinas? :-))

	Vulgar, obnoxious, vituperative postings filled with name-calling,
threats and ad-hominem attacks are commonplace.  Who can blame the "Portalets"
for trying to fit in?

	This would seem to be a good time for all of us to take a few minutes
and read through "news.announce.newusers" one more time.  PEOPLE read, and
post to, the net.  People will inevitably have disagreements.  If they can't
be resolved, shall we not politely "agree to disagree," and leave it at that?
Why carry on like a bunch of schoolyard bullies?  Why?
