:/ Not that it was a terribly hot flame (because it wasn't), but the
tone wasn't too nice.

Could you give a specific example of what you mean? Because I haven't seen
any flame-wars on this server, although I don't read every newsgroup
oh, and uhm... Tim Cook was joking, as one should be able to determine by

That and the obvious lack of effort bothering to come up with a real flame.
