Attacking Matt at this point, after he's been banned and can't even respond
(not that we want him to) probably doesn't make a lot of sense. While your
venting is understandable, at this point I suggest we all try to forget the
whole thing, or at least stick to discussion of the meta issues around the
incident rather than the back and forth of the conversation itself.

For example: In terms of elapsed time this particular storm arose, boiled over
(1), and was handled more quickly than just about any I've seen. Yet lots of
acid was spilled. Short of moderating the whole place (unworkable) is this the
best we can do? Should we try to do better? Conversely did it all happen TOO
fast?

My answers are, it was amazingly well handled, and doing better seems hard to
even contemplate. Conversely it wasn't too fast because it seemed pretty
clearcut.

Kudos to Todd.

(...) Well said Larry. You are very right about me not making sense. My apology to the group. Obviously my frustration was at a boiling point. (...) Agreed. Bryce McGlone (24 years ago, 18-Oct-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
