No, I don't think so at all. Their arguments that "one must have a
sense of humor" are misplaced. If I want to read jokes or find
interresting quiz'es (which I do, from time to time), I read the
appropriate news groups, and _not_ the PIC list. Everything has it's
place and this is the place for PIC discussions.
