I hate the word "netiquette" and particularly people who adopt it as their
personal religion, believing that their way is not only the best way, but
the only way. Finally it comes to "my way or the highway," and then people
start talking about who should be banned from the group. Banning is the
antithesis of freedom of expression, and Linux is about freedom of choice.<br>
