Re: [Haskell-cafe] Is Haskell a Fanatic?

If you think someone is talking nonsense, I think the best policy is to ignore it or reply privately (not to the list); then the thread dies.  I find derogatory discussion of a particular person quite discouraging.  It is likely to be unjust, and it encourages more of the same.  It's like littering your own house.
