FYI
Internet Troll - "On the Internet, a troll is a person who posts 
messages that create controversy or an angry response without adding 
content to the discussion, often intentionally.."

[ I'm not trying to be a smarty pants here...this definition and url is 
just for people who don't already know. ]

>> Well you may or may not have a point. One mans troll is another mans 
fish? :)
I kinda have a point....my goal though was to inspire some empathy for 
peoples "homes" on the web. I see blogs and websites like peoples 
personal living rooms. You can come over and bring something to the 
conversation. But because this is *someone else's* living room and not 
*yours* the person who lives there can tell you to leave if they wish.

The only way I can see you can *truly* counter this is to make your own 
blog, invite people over, and seeing if they'll stay around when you 
kick them out for writing something you don't like.
