Sorry, but there is a world of difference between saying "I prefer X
over Y" and "Yes, Y is evil". And unless English is a second language
for you, it's insulting to imply a difference between calling
something evil and agreeing with someone who did, even if you added a
smiley.

This is a 'discussion' list. Nothing kills discussion faster than
zealots who call those who disagree with them evil or idiots or
clueless n00bs.
