To shoot off at a tangent, when you say "East" Ralios, where exactly do you have in mind? In particular, over how wide an area are you suggesting an anti-Arkat attitude might be prevalent? (Yeah, I know, he's not riotously popular in the West either, but let's leave those worms temporarily recanned.)

Since Sandy _is_ someone who claims for himself the title Most Obnoxious Pedant, what ever makes you think he'd worry about getting into an argument with another one? Lemme assure you, we're a more social (after our fashion) species than you might imagine... Just ask the lucky (??) guy at Convulsion trapped in a room with Sandy, Joerg, Nick and myself one (very) late night.
Alex.
