The vitriol and barbed words that are so common on our list remind me
that civil wars and fights between siblings are the meanest, because
the parties are so basically similar. Their parsing of, and the
reaction to small inflexions or subtle teases are often all out of
proportion to the dig.
In the AeroElectric List, we are a subset of a maligned clan. Don't
we realize that airplanes are dangerous, small planes are really
dangerous -- and a superfluous indulgence, and home-made small planes
are a nearly suicidal irresponsible indulgence that endangers
ourselves and everyone around us? And then you're going to put
together the whole electrical system of this "toy" yourself?!
As words fly by the two-way rifle range of cyber-conversation,
remember that our countries' majorities would legislate and stamp us
out of existence in a heartbeat if they could. Happy new year wishes
to a very small, adventurous, smart, international, and maybe
hyper-aware group of lovers of the homemade airplane.
