Dear Hetz,

I feel that your reaction to UeCh is somewhat Pavlovian. His idea (which - alas 
- is "more of the very old same only smeared with spiritualistic nonsense") 
does not merit such reaction, in my opinion.

That is sound advice. Alas, Uri, no matter whether your intent is to share 
unencumbered content or (tfu-tfu-tfu, has ve halila, perish the thought) 
encumbered content, the powers that be (namely, people with gazillions of 
dollars in ready money) will not look on such an idea with all that much 
goodwill.

Hetz, my dear, this is an ad hominem (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ad_hominem). 
It might even constitute libel. Yes, Uri is either unaware or ignoring Israeli 
and other laws, but using an ad hominem is always a bad idea.

Again, an ad hominem. What does it matter that Uri rails (quite incoherently, I 
must say, which gravely detracts from his argumentation) against criminal 
organizations like the IDF, etc. Uri is somewhat misguided in his views, but 
that is not a very good reason to ad hominem him.
