Given that the people who read this newsgroup are so physically
dispersed, I'd imagine that this is the most productive way to
argue. What did you expect, a rumble?
For the most part, this discussion is one of the better ones on
usenet.

"Nose-picking 4-eyed cyber-geeks"? I could respond in one of several ways:
1) you don't seem to have exactly "found the path" either,
2) "it takes one to know one"
3) We're all a magnificent bronze color with exquisitely sculpted bodies
4) lighten up, and at least get to know people before making this
sort of sweeping judgement.

I believe that's the moderator's job to kill topics.

Well - this is interesting - I met a few of your UH HSC guys
at the temple, and we had a very interesting discussion on vegetarianism.
Perhaps you'd like to join them next Sunday?
And yes - I've got a thought on vegetarianism - it's good. I'll
see you on Sunday, when I can expound on this thought...
And, I was wondering about how you were going to "use them".
I remember the guy I met mentioned some form of talk on
Hinduism and vegetarianism that was taking place last Monday.
Perhaps you could use this newsgroup to advertise, so that
Houston-area Hindus could attend your talks as well.
