I've never run a country, but that doesn't keep me from offering Bush 
free advice at every opportunity when I seem him doing things that just 
seem obviously wrong and in contradiction to what I believe to be 
sensible and defensible.  I don't think ERH (I don't know how to refer 
to him either!) was doing anything different, nor did he assert that 
what he was saying was anything but his best understanding as opposed 
to his hands-on expertise.

So, if you hired ERH to setup your website you would certainly be 
justified in having pause about his strong opinions on subjects he may 
or may not have real expertise.  If you are just subscribing to 
xml-dev, well you gets what ya pays for from all of us.   The charm of 
this list is that there are plenty of people who can take pointed 
analysis of their ideas as well as dish it out, all without it turning 
into a flame fest.

Hmm, I don't think there is any relationship, and anyway it would be 
the fault of the ISP.
