No, no, no.

Well, asshats in funny clothes begat theocracy, but they used a religious excuse. "If I were ever to challenge you to a duel, your best bet would be battle axes in a very dark basement." Misquoted from The Prisoner

Just like the WC for a thread to quickly degenerate into a debate about alcohol.
I'd have to say that time (or if you have a problem with that as an invention, the measurement of time) is humanity's worst invention. Fencing T-shirts available at Off-The-Piste Wear **New designs** including f.net themed designs for easy recognition of fellow f.netters at tournaments!
