The problem with dealing with anyone on the internet
Gentlemen,
I am appalled at the bad behavior I sometimes see on the internet. If people, meaning actual people, could get together in a room,
get to know each other and have decent, meaning civil conversations, that would be normative. As it stands, I see too much uncivil behavior.
To expand on that, imagine the following. A group of experts are in a meeting and all and sundry can walk in unannounced,
spew nonsense and then leave. Or worse, keep returning to spew more nonsense.
Imagine sitting in your home and a total stranger walks in, empties a bag of trash and then leaves.
Normative means normal, but the bad characters have unfettered access to this and other forums. A way needs to be found to eliminate this, and needless misunderstandings.
Regards,
Ed
