Okay, thanks for the links. Esp. the second one sheds the light on it. It reminds me of the 'Serenity Prayer' that's also used by the AA. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serenity_Prayer

Here is one:
God grant me the serenity
To accept the things I cannot change;
Courage to change the things I can;
And wisdom to know the difference.


It is esp. the third sentence that makes sense here. Mike CAN chat on the UT. It takes courage to try to change that into CANNOT. Similarly Mike CAN drink alcohol. It takes courage to change that into CANNOT or WILLNOT.

Mike has replied to me today. I have decided not to react there, to help him. I must also conclude that Mchel has not reacted as asked by Mike. That's not appropriate and/or polite behaviior of Michel. I blame Michel for that.

Constructive frustration is the breeding ground of genius.
If there’s no willingness to moderate for the sake of good debate, then I have no willingness to debate at all.
Let's develop superb standards that will end the holy wars.
