The 'despot' exchange (Part 2)

Back to the Han-Lee exchange. Anyway, there's lots of comments from readers (some of whom witnessed the exchange, or are friends of Mr. Han) at Mrbrown's and Miyagi's) And then a more extended look at sintercom. I am actually in agreement most with Redrown's 'non-event' reading of the exchange, and having said that, found myself not having much more to add to the discussion...

One thing though: MM is right--forget about ST Forum, and I might add: dead-tree publications in general. The internet is the way to go. (Except that in my line of work, dead-tree peer-reviewed publication is still the most respectable way to be heard.)

Shelved, for now...
