I heartily disagree with Pat's request to petition Eric to remove Andreas from
this list. While I usually do not agree with Andreas' comments, I have not seen
anything from him that breaks the list etiquette. Pat, I don't know why you're
so offended by Andreas. Actually, I was pretty offended by your "Andreas, for
Christ's Sake" post, but I certainly would not use that as an excuse to try to
ban you from this list.

If we all had the same opinions, we'd never learn anything new.
