Re: discussion style and respect

1. Consider the possibility that some of the cases are deliberate trolling
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_troll#Corporate.2C_political_and_special_interest_sponsored_trolls

as an attack on the IETF and the Internet.
2. http://dilbert.com/strip/2015-06-07 is an anti-pattern:
(“misinterpret every comment you make as an absurd absolute and then attack it 
…”)

3. terse can be dismissive, dismissive can be rude
   but not always, and it’s better to encourage terse.
