Most people can get into 'heated' conversations, myself included. However,
some folks might prefer not to read the very heated messages. How about a
*convention* to let others know that the message is a *heated* message?

What is your definition of Flaming?  Is it personal attacks on a fellow
poster? Is it negative comments about the subject at hand? (In this case,
KT) 

Just remember, folks, that flaming really is unnecessary. Yet, I see it in
many places..comp.os.geos sometimes gets heated, and, of course, some of
the many message boards/areas on AOL can get heated. Much is unecessary,
BUT it is much healthier to be inflammatory in a message post, which
doesn't personally hurt or effect others unless they allow it to, than to
be violent in a physical way.

Also.. in order for a flamewar to erupt, you need more than one person
participating in it.
