Others, like myself, haven't mapped a toll, may never map a toll, and comment on the proposal in order to try to improve it even though they may never use it. Because we all benefit from a rational mapping scheme and all suffer from a badly-conceived one. Question: which of those people should be prepared to do the most work by dealing with a method of communication they do not prefer? Those who didn't see a need for the change in the first place or the person wanting the change? What the proposer is implying (whether intentionally or not) is that his/her/its time is more valuable than ours. His/her/its time is more valuable than the time of all of us who find it easier to respond on the list than on the wiki, put together. I doubt very much that this is the case. And even if it were the case, that would just be pointing out how inferior the rest of us are, and nobody likes to be made to feel inferior. In addition, his/her/its attitude isn't helping his/her/its case. He/she/it doesn't want to do the work necessary, work that most other proposers accept as part of the task, and insists that any of us who prefer responding here must inconvenience ourselves for his/her/its benefit. And then he/she/it accuses me of being childish when I point out how some people are likely to respond. How to make friends and influence people... -- Paul
