- Even if I could get a plain English version of this attempted
- theory, would it being worth it?
- This already seems to have wasted quite a few working
- hours for a theory that is not generally regarded
- even as an attempted theory.
-
- As I got on to this thread late, I still have trouble
- differentiating the attempted theory with the
- slagging match that is going on. Re:-
-
- "STATUS QUO" "RESISTANCE TO CHANGE" "RAVING LOONY" etc etc.
-
- How do you differentiate the abuse from the
- theory?
-
- One thing to be said for this discussion is the
- intensity of the posts. Anti MS vs UNIX vs NT vs DOS vs
- Santa Claus vs Easter Bunny flame wars just don't
- seem to compare to this. Goto sci.physics and some posts just
- seem to reach out and step on your brain.
- Some people waste money on drugs to get this effect!!
-
- DISCLAIMER (after sci.physics I now take no risks) :-
- I only partake in this discussion in respect for the
- ammount of time and tax-payers money it is wasting.
- What do I care? I'm a chemist not a physics boffin.
- This theory is your problem - let them (sci.physics) eat cake.

- With regards and failed humour, Lachlan.
