Trivia uber alles?

[jay]

It's past 2am... it is hard to believe that I've had a 20-comment discussion in my journal this evening (filtered) that is apparently about the appropriateness of using "IMO" vs "IME" in a comment that I posted elsewhere. That's just silly. No disclaimer here. That's the sort of empty thrashing that causes me to wonder about the value of the medium... it sidesteps the actual content of the message, instead picking at communication style.

I'm coming to admire your insight and perspective. What you say makes sense...

(that was a wink, and a smile, BTW)
(but the data points comment is nonetheless true)
