Below is a good example of 1) how flaming gets started on this network,
and 2) how I was sucked into it via my response to Derluguian.
Flaming is a waste of time and cyberspace!
I witnessed what seemed to be a great discussion in the makings re. the
new European monetary system (example: Greene), then along came Georgi,
which provoked be to respond in kind. I can't speak for him, but I was
at my worst.
I don't know about all you "seasoned" WS scholars, but those of us who
are ABD, working on serious global research, and are at the threshhold of
moving into the "paying" academic world could gain much by reading and
occasionally contributing to a positive cyber-discussion of this
potentially historical event. Remember, we are the ones who will replace
you "oldies" (but goodies) when you are molding in your coffins.
Let's all "JUST SAY NO" (I hate to coin a Nancy Reagan phrase, but...) to
flaming, and get on with productive exchange.
