To reach consensus, we should convince other       participants that some change or new thing worth standardizing. And we       should find/use many different constructive arguments for that.                     --       Ruvim              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
