I agree with your observations. The last few days have indeed been kind of upsetting. I hope everyone follows your suggestions. > Also, what happened to Rich? It seems like many wasteful discussions could be > more easily put to bed by his response > instead of the current "here's a video of Rich from a year ago" or "here's a > link to something Rich wrote in the past" I don't think Rich should be bothered by these issues because he has harder problems to solve, and forward the state of the art. There is enough material online which people can peruse without wasting Rich's time (especially since his work is very well documented). I believe it's entirely our prerogative to look up the material online (in whatever format it has been provided) and try to grok Rich's wisdom; I think it's wrong to expect Rich to intervene every time someone refuses to read the material online and argues about nomenclature that has been widely accepted within (and beyond!) the community. Having said that, I completely empathise with your feelings --- you are not being oversensitive at all. Unfortunately, that's something that we will have to solve among ourselves, exactly how though, I am not sure.
