Once somebody has learnt the truth, most find they can only deny it
for so long. :)

I agree a lot of the discussions turn into bitchfests, and it seems
many of our developers are going out of their way as of late to stir
the pot, but its well known that a small minority of whiners gives the
majority a bad name( not to go into politics, but take a look at
muslims & christians in modern media, its always the extremists who
are out there making the rest of them look bad by carrying their name
)

Also, I guess if you went into the chambers of your local government
it would often escillate into flamewars, at least thats what I've
gathered from the media..( .. unless thats only a small minority of
politicians making the rest look bad.....)

But  as a whole, at least in my opinion, you wont find a so well
structured community comprised with such a high percentage of people
who know what they're talking about. ( I find $OTHEROS rooms
frustrating as they're all full of the noobs asking  questions with
nobody who knows the answer.. its like a damn MSDN blog reply
list....'liek..zomg!..vista is so cool'  )
