I notice that you now have.
It's a bit difficult to bring up people's reliance on AOL without
appearing to be making fun of the handicapped. When Stanco first
showed up and started behaving in a notably clueless way, it _was_
tempting to mention that, but it seemed wiser to stick to the issues.
Of course, in the end I decided not to engage him on the issues, either,
because he seemed in need of more fundamental education than I felt I
could manage while remaining polite.
