It happened at the end of the Slavery and Canada thread (which I avoided 
looking at altogether). Apparently Ted made some tongue-in-cheek comments 
after the thread had gotten completely out of hand, and some folks took him 
seriously and flamed him. A learning experience for me: (1) don't say 
anything tongue in cheek on the LUG because someone will take it seriously, 
and (2) don't take anything seriously on the LUG. This is approaching Sci 
Fi proportions.
