Some people on the IETF as being technos lack people skills, that's why they
work with computers...
I usually explain it as "We're talking here about a collection of people who
are paid vast sums of money for their ability to carry on productive
conversations with inanimate objects".
It's usually easy to see the need for the cutting of slack at that point. ;)
If your ego can pass that, you will be admitted to the IETF confrerie and be
able to do the same to newbies...
Can anybody provide the original citation for the statement (similar to):
"The flame you are complaining about did not cast any aspersion on your
parentage or dietary preferences, and as such was mild by IETF standards"?
