Ha! Touche'! You're quite right actually. Easy to color my perceptions when I unsubscribe from lists too potent with flame-bait.

Although I'd say if I had an algorithm that could detect a well-delivered quip I'd be a richer man indeed ;-)

Seriously though, I'll bet there are few enough phrases that could be tested for that it would be a manageable script. The great trick would be to compare script snippets such that dupes didn't get extracted, and even doesn't seem too terribly hard.

Hey, time out! This list is VERY CIVILIZED compared to most! So knock off
the insulting.
Your script might languish. In fact, I can't remember one flame war here in
2 years..
We do on the other hand digress quite often. How about a script that
activates on a well delivered quip?
