I don't think it's worth it. It often makes the whole atmosphere more
tense. Long discussions ensue about what the rules are and who's breaking
them. It seems that on almost EVERY tech list there is griping and
critizing of this wild industry, it comes with the territory.It's
relatively easy to ignore it if you want. A reaction to the FireWire
decision was a little late here. It had to come up I suppose.
