Nobody knows. Most reasonable people KFed the participants or the thread
when it passed 200 posts (in two NGs), and the rest of us just watched,
mouths agape, the way people stand like idiots during a multi-car pileup
where bodies and wrecked automobiles lie around in a twisted, gory mess.

The people who were arguing about the question forgot what the question
was dozens of posts ago, too, which I think is the real reason nobody's
answered or restated it. Meanwhile, the would-be participants have also
lost interest. The boiler has cooled; the steam is gone. Nothing left
but a few still-hot words and some half-hearted name-calling.

All I know anymore is that you are a troll for asking, and I am a troll
for responding to you. ;-)
