What is weird about rudeness is that you could be making a statement that
you think is completely inoffensive, and someone out there yells "foul."
We can certainly find another outlet for rudeness, but I don't think
rudeness is an especially distinctive mark of cyberspace (as already
pointed out). I was going to say that the DEL key is the best thing to
use when you don't have time for rudeness, but to use the DEL key is
perhaps a scapegoat. I don't think we're going to get a "kinder and
gentler" America, so we'll have to find ways to diplomatically defuse the
bad feelings and rudeness amongst ourselves, so that we can continue
being a Museum-L family.
