Re: Re; Thoughts on the Internet's Founding Myths

I'm not going to go into the specifically and intentionally detailed
examples below, in fact I am snipping half of them.

[Moderator: It looks like what was below was sent here without
 snipping.  In such cases, when there's no reply to specific bits
 in the text, and the post is recent enough that its context is
 still remembered-- in this case, it was the text of the post I made
 last night-- I typically snip the whole quoted post.  That's
 what I've done here.- JMO]

However, I think the best response to this question comes from one
of my heroes, Nobel Prize winner Richard Feynman, who carefully said
something like this, and I hate to misquote, but I haven't time to
look it up right now, it's Newsletter day:

"I may or may not be smarter than anyone in this room,
but I am definitely NOT smarter than everyone in this room."


Thanks!!!
