However, Joerg Schilling, notwithstanding his (lack of?) social abilities and confrontational style of writing, has provided valuable historical information, and has a non-dismissable background. It is also worrying that this is making TUHS even more USA-centric, and that his european point of view (however removed from "on-the-ground" MIT- or Berkely-epicenters first hand info) is being silenced. In my opinion, the TUHS list has been a very enjoyable read in recent times, and those who found Joerg unpalatable had already "kill-filed" him. Peace, -- Josh Good
