They are? What about people who are of the opinion that the earth is
flat? Or people who think that JFK was assassinated by aliens who crash
landed their UFOs at Roswell? Or people who think that wearing magnetic
bracelets is good for your health? Or people who think that Avril
Lavigne has made a valuable cultural contribution to humanity? Or people
who think that DJB is the best thing since sliced bread? Or emacs users
who indent their Java source code using tabs? Should I respect their
opinions too?
