I agree.  However, know that 99.9% of csa2 is NOT like this.
Nathan wanted us to all take up the fight and start flaming
but isn't it true that flaming no matter on which side is only
going to make things worst?  Like Burger Bill said in another
thread, the only way to approach the issue is to ignore it
whenenver it pops up.  I'm not going to say any more so as
not to get dragged into the fray, but just read the last few
Burger Bill messages and you can see which one I'm talking
about.

Again, let's do what Burger Bill said rather than taking the
approach that the entire csa2 is evil OR contributing to the
problem.
