There is a lot of anger in the world. A lot of it is justified. To
express it in our communications is not always and only a bad thing. Of
course, there is the added weirdness of e-mail in general which
definitely tends to exacerbate misfirings in communication. It is a bad
thing thing when venting becomes a substitute for dialogue, but I do not
think there is *usually* much sign of that in transhumanist fora.
