SCN: Lawsuit

[J. Johnson]

The essential, prerequisite basis of _community_ is _common_, as in a
common (or shared) experience or knowledge.  And while I would not "hold
any one's feet to the fire" to the extent of requiring anyone to read, let
alone follow, all the excruciating twists and turns of the ostensible
debate with Rich, I will argue that _everyone_ needs to know that there is
a debate, as well as the character of that debate.  If you turn your back
on this, if you choose to be oblivious to a long-running problem, then
your participation in SCN is ill-informed, and you no longer share
community with those of us that have been dealing with this problem for
several years.  Is Rich off-base?  Only you can decide.

You don't have to read every message of "more explanation" that comes by. 
But the issue needs public airing, so that everyone at least knows that
there is an issue, or we might as well become just "SN".
