Jackie, 

I'm really sorry you have to face this.  It comes up every few months
or so, usually from the college student set, with the type of egoism
that the word sophomoric is used to express.

There is one worse group of social uncultured on the net, though, and
these are the Unix grues.

They are the ones who act as if they are running a cargo cult, which
cargo is the _treasured_information_, which everyone is supposed to
value in the same way they do.  This is an excuse for the alternative
of facing life as a fully realized person.

They can be very, very rude, as you have found.

I have never been able to understand any reason for the attitude, and
wish them well in some day finding a more interesting and happy way to
live.

You seem a cheerful sort, Jackie, with a different sort of wisdom, and
I appreciate that.  Please continue to contribute however you see fit.

I'm sure many other people really do appreciate it as well.

Clive Steward
