- *snort* The man who wrote the book on net.condescension is calling an ARC

- It's the environment...being surrounded by so much warmth and caring of the
- sort found here in soc.singles does that to people. I have to say that I
- find it amusing that Dawn talks about *alt.romance* people getting hot and
- bothered about cross-posting, when one of the most common sorts of posts
- I see around here are "This shit doesn't belong in soc.singles." posts.
