I agree with Chuck 100%. It's easy to determine when a thread has gone
emotional and hostile to the point of becoming useless. The benefits of
this list far outweigh the noise. And for those that are particularly
adept at never losing an argument or whose opinion seems to be extremely
biased or are negative beyond the point of reason - mail rules can do
wonders to get those notes deposited properly. I use them regularly and
probably am listed in a few!

I agree 100% :)
Nothing beats a discussion with peers having different
backgrounds/perspectives. You can only learn from it, provided both
sides use real arguments and do not throw sand to each other.> From:
