Amol, I'm not in the "too lazy" category. But I use a dial-up on a painfully slow line. This means, visiting URLs is a real pain.
Could you post a few details (or a part of the article) so that we don't have to visit the website, but read it via email itself on this list? Tks, FN

Wonder if any one of you came across this @ Slashdot. It's about ESR adding his own jargon descriptions to the well-known jargon file he maintains. You can see the post here: http://slashdot.org/articles/03/06/08/1534249.shtml?tid=99
For people too lazy to point their browsers here's a short description:
---Starts-- As reported by NTK, ESR appears to have embarked apon the process of recasting the Jargon File in his own image, adding terms like "Aunt Tillie" and "GhandiCon" that he dreamt up and seemingly no-one else uses, and various terms from (of all places) the warblogging community, where he is active. He's also updated the "Hacker Politics" page to be more closely aligned with his own views. --Ends--
