Congratulations on starting a thread by invoking Godwin's Law ;-)

For those who are interested, here's a discussion of how Godwin's Law may not be "true": //www.faqs.org/faqs/usenet/legends/godwin/

I can't believe I just read that whole page....

Now, what was the original point?

ETA: Googled the article and thought it was fascinating.

Ah, the ol' take your ball and go home. Those other guys were just funnin' ya pedro. I actually read the article you posted (before you removed the link) and thought it was rather fascinating, if that counts for anything.

Holy Moly! Bear instantaneously recognized and classified a reverse Godwin! :) I feel this requires us to name it Bear Corollary!

HAhah, i know bear was just having fun, and i did that to respect the Godwin law, just playing...I'll put the link again..hehe

Oh. I'm a Nazi? Sure. Bye. hahah

"5. What should I do if somebody else invokes Godwin's Law?

The obvious response is to call them on it, say "thread's over",
and declare victory. This is also one of the stupidest possible responses,
because it involves believing far too much in the power of a few rules that
don't say exactly what you wish they said anyway. The proper response to
an invocation is probably to simply followup with a message saying "Oh.
I'm a Nazi? Sure. Bye" and leave, and in most cases even that much of a
post is unnecessary.
