- Although fighting in hockey disgraces the sport and adds nothing to the game,
- I don't think many of us turn off the game when a fight breaks out (they sure
- don't turn off the camera...)
-
- I think the current fight on usenet.rec.games.chess is comparable. Few chess
- players want to get involved, but it's hard not to tune in to see what's
- going to happen next!
-
- Mark - are you getting all this down?

- [As a courtesy, though, it would be easier for the spectators not to include
- the postings to which a response is being made, and just post the latest
- flame. I only want to see the new stuff.]
