[Boston-editorial] idea to discuss on Sunday

Sounds like a good idea.  I agree with Pete that implementing it
fairly will be difficult.

I'd rather go after "insulting" than "aggressive".

Stays:
"your idea is stupid because ..."  (provided it's a reason)


Goes:
"your idea is stupid."		(no explanation)
"you're stupid because ..."	(personal attack)

though defining this will probably be like nailing jello to the wall.

If we decide to go this way we should probably agree on some razor wire
announcement to accompany it.
