(...) Being corrected in a public forum is somewhat disturbing to most people. On the other hand, getting one correction message is (I would think) less disturbing than getting many.

I don't think these kinds of post should be posted on lugnet.technic. If so, can someone responsible please take whatever action is appropriate? Given the recent discussions here, I'm not sure what the appropriate action would be. Fredrik (23 years ago, 12-Jan-02, to lugnet.admin.general)
