As I said to NancyLebovitz:

  1. These few insightful posts have been the exception - most comments on PUA here have been much more incendiary.

  2. roland hasn't shown any sign of being noninflammatory on the subject, much less insightful.

I think that depends on how you count. Most times PUA has been brought up, it has gone quietly, but the threads that have gone badly have generated a lot of comments.

I don't remember ever writing much on the subject of PU, except the meta-comments in this post. Prove me wrong please?
