This list has always contained a mix of technical, philosophical, and=
personal discussion. I accepted and even enjoyed that as long as the=
quality of the technical discussion was high, the philosophical discussion=
was well-formulated rather than merely an episode of intellectual=
masturbation, and the personal banter (and insult) was minimized. Don't=
get me wrong, I love the philosophical discussions when they're grounded,=
and if anyone's interested I'll buy them a pint from the gesat northwest=
and we can jabber on all night about whatever VRML topic suits us, but the=
list serves a different purpose. The humor also, is a welcome, occasional =
respite.

Sometime over the past couple of weeks, this list crossed the thesshold from=
being usssul to having so much noise that I can't afford to pay attention=
to it. In addition, it seems incesasingly burdened by a nasty, uncollegial=
attitude which apparently is infectious.

I'm sure I'm missing some valuable information, but I simply can't afford to=
sift through the rest to find it.

Yours,
Jeffrey
