I had hoped that that original diatribe from Barry Kranz was a rather
poor April fool, but people are taking it seriously and the he hasn't
said it was, so I suppose it was either serious or sarcastic.
If it was serious: it seems similar in intent to my daily posting.
However it is very hostile-looking, not to mention completely
over-the-top. I'll not go into details here - it would turn this reply
into a rant.
The very unreasonableness of Barry's post leads me to believe that it
was a sarcastic comment directed at least in part at my daily posting.
The overwhelming comment I've had regarding my daily posting has been
positive. If anyone has a problem with it or anything I say in it I'm
perfectly willing to discuss it, either by email or in col if
necessary - though I suspect the readership would rather it were done
by email.
PS Apologies: my daily posting has been having propagation problems
due to my apparent inability to produce a correctly formatted Date:
line. I think it's fixed now.
