I'm sorry, but in any discussion it is perfectly reasonable to sometimes say that an idea is not a very good one. Note that there is a difference between 'you are silly' and 'this is silly'. Manoj said the latter (one minor typo notwithstanding). If calling ideas silly is no longer allowed, then I am all for booting out all non-European developers from the project (because their laws suck). -- The biometric identification system at the gates of the CIA headquarters works because there's a guard with a large gun making sure no one is trying to fool the system. http://www.schneier.com/blog/archives/2009/01/biometrics.html
