Ok, I don't know about anyone else, but I certainly feel that there has
been enough aggression flying in BOTH directions in this thread.

Lets try and remember that we are all part of this mailing list because
we're trying to work towards certain goals. We are NOT each other's
enemy. We all want a better world with better security, and we are all
trying to bring this to the general public.

I get that we all have very strong opinions. But shouting at each other,
and not completely reading and addressing the full responses people are
putting into this thread will not get us anywhere... it will result in
endless back and forth...

Please take the time to take a deep breath before each response, and
carefully consider what everyone is saying, not just the people that
agree with you.

Thanks,
sam.
