You keep using this word "strawman" but the way you use it is the way Scarecrow would use it on the Yellow Brick Road. Otherwise, very good reasoned argument.

Otherwise, very good reasoned argument. I'll be trying some stuff out and you can pitch in comments along this vein then I'll gladly listen. Thank you for disagreeing with me.
However, when someone says things to me the way blasdel did then, and not expect me to insult back, then they're in the wrong game. You can't dish it out and expect to not get the same back. I most definitely expect it back and take it on the chin frequently. That's also why there's no pictures of me on the internet in my underwear.
Keep it civil and I keep it civil. Be a jerk and I'll be a jerk, and frankly that's how the "real world" works. You get what you give.

That's a classic strawman. blasdel was out of line, but it was just words, it was on topic, and it was buried in a comment thread. By your own standard of "you get what you give", your response was disproportionate. Anyways, like I've said, I'm looking forward to seeing how your poll/epoll hybrid works out, and to being proven wrong. I'll be glad to offer up any thoughts as you get it working.
