If that's the case, why would we bother to discuss anything, ever?  I
mean, if it was all just a matter of everybody having their solitary,
inviolate opinion preserved in vacuum, there would be no point trying
to carry on a conversation at all.  We'd all be just little isolated
satellites, beeping out messages that none of the others listened to.

If we were to take that approach on this list, we'd soon be back to
the level of discussion that you see on Usenet news:

        It rules!
        No, it sucks!
        No, it rules!
        No, it sucks!
        ...etc, ad infinitum, ad nauseum
