Agreed. I'd like to draw a distinction between talking about these things, and 
a person feeling like they possess The Truth, and Must Educate The Ignorant 
Masses, and turning every little thing into a diatribe. There's quite a gap 
between the two.

Something to consider- how does ranting on PLUG help anything? Except sharing 
misery with friends, perhaps. :)   Again, I'm not in favor of getting all 
restrictive over keeping on topic. Me, I think it's better to not waste my 
energy pissing and moaning on PLUG and Slashdot and such about the state of 
the world, and to put those energies to work where they have a chance to do 
some good. Just because I don't talk about my various activisms here, for 
example, doesn't mean I'm sitting on my fat happy ass doing nothing.
