Someone (wish i could remember who) said that academic infighting is so nasty because the stakes are so small. I wonder if that could explain the nastiness here, too? (And no, that's not meant snidely at all -- the comment has always seemed zen-like to me)
Pity that Yoshie left, but i'm sure she's happier now.
