I apologize if my initial tone was harsh; it was not meant to be,
and that is simply a drawback to electronic media. My feeling on "Bad
Karma" is not that it's stupid, just that certain ramifications of the
idea may have such-and-such an effect. Merely an observation.
Think of my post not so much as an example of what to do, but
rather what *not* to do. It was meant as constructive criticism from a
warning standpoint rather than a suggestive one. Same content, different
direction.
