Ron,

If someone can devote time and effort for researching the purported 
topic of this mailing list, it is regarded by someone else as a bad 
thing. That someone else is put off by himself having a job which 
precludes him from participating except in a mediocre way. However, 
Phaedrus's aim in ZAMM was not to define or discover or understand 
mediocrity. It was to understand excellence.
