I remember reading a conversation between Xonophon and Clearchus 
which the former recorded some 2500 years ago, in which he asks: 
"So Clearchus, what is it you advise us to do, *knowing* that it 
will be reported to all Greece..."  As indeed it was; and did he 
realize that we would still be reading this 2500 years later? 
 
So likewise, I see that someone has recorded our words here, and 
brings them up, [usually with glee] again some months later.  So 
it is that I pause for thought sometimes, before being less than 
less than charitable to some flamethrowing asshole, which we all 
know, are the most full of hot gasses.  It must be very painful.
