Ah, crap, I didn't see this until now. I _did_ take the wrong meaning from it and unfortunately replied accordingly :| So please take this as a sincere apology (laced with relief that I wasn't anything more than curt in the response). I hold some pretty strong views on epistemology and individuals' capacity for learning which haven't been meshing well with the modest proposals and crowdsourcing of project work which seems to be taking up more of this list all the time. So it's probably a good idea to take a break. A friend has been encouraging me to learn io, so now might be the time :) Sorry again, Ben. You're generally one of the more level-header posters to the list and I should have given you more credit (or better, just opted not to reply).
