Right, well, I don't think that's the sense in which Larry intended the
term. (Nor did he intend it in the sense of "anarchocapitalism".)
Not in the other sense of nihilist "I can do
whatever I want, let's
go blow some stuff up, yay!"
I think this is more or less the sense he intended. I think a good
way to put it would be "I'm opposed to all standards! Isn't random
crap just as informative as so-called thoughtful articles anyway?"
As long as you are here to enforce the banning policy
you just posted, I
am happy with the status quo as it is. It really can take a while
sometimes to figure out if someone is sincerely trying to work with us,
or just yanking our chain.
I'm going to continue to be guilty of waiting a bit too long.
Thank you for your time and patience working on the
Wikipedia, Jimmy.
Oh, I don't do nearly as much as most of the regulars. My job is to
sit here and reflect on what people are saying, and then to repeat it
in such a way that it seems like I thought of it. ;-)
As Linus Torvalds likes to say "I'm basically a very lazy person who
likes to get credit for things other people actually do."
