We have to give a lot more people a chance to turn us down _in the 
real world_ -- many times, we don't even ask.

As for Carl's cyber-jeremiads, though, I do think that we need a safe 
space where we can bitch, carp, despair, fulminate, grouch, mourn, 
rave, vent, etc.  Most likely, that's what much of mailing list 
discussions are for.
