'Course, my solution to HTML mail, reluctantly employed recently, was to disable the display of HTML mail in my client/browser. This after, God help me, my email started spawning pop-up ads...

I wonder if Kant would agree that the delivery of kicks in the ass was a categorical imperative...

-This still leaves the matter of hostility, which I thought was a bad idea for the LOGAS, but, in the spirit of... I think it was Voltaire, or someone with a V name, I will now defend its ideals resolutely. Hostility will happen much more often in the looser forums: spoon-discuss, IRC (not that we use that much), and, concievably, private e-mail messages. (Note: anyone who reports that someone else was overly hostile in a private e-mail for the purpose of kicking that player in the ass will be forever unofficially branded a jackass, and no one will ever talk to you again, and your friends wil shun you, and you'll get a nasty paper cut. Jackass.)-
