"Don't worry, Kenny."

Promise of reassurance.

"He hates us."

Who are they anyway? This single response was from the usual poster
with no (real) name. I really believe it is always the same clod each
time. :)

"We do "browser sniffing" (must be the worst crime in the
universe...)!"

Bizarre hyperbole and the post he (she?) responded to made no mention
of browser sniffing.

"And since we're all deluding ourselves, I
mean, you, us, and all the other people out there using or producing
libraries and frameworks,"

I don't think Kenny has produced any JS libraries or frameworks. I
can't speak for "all the other people", but I certainly have produced
such (and without resorting to browser sniffing).

"doing thousands of successful projects,"

Name one (and no, qooxdoo doesn't count as a success).

"he seems like the only sane person in this crazy world..."

Any novice could see that qooxdoo is junk (well, except Kenny). Same
for jQuery, Dojo, etc. Trouble is many don't bother to look. And
anyone with any real experience shouldn't have to look far (first line
of this one would suffice).

Crazy world, indeed (certainly as far as JS is concerned). Just full
of kooks spouting non-arguments; screaming until they are red-faced
that it is their God-given right to be incompetent. Couldn't care
less about them, but you've got to feel for their clients.

"Must be really hard. ;)"

Actually it's quite easy. Like shooting fish in a barrel really. ;)

And, as usual, not a single technical point was addressed. That's
hardly reassuring. :(

I don't really care about anyone's emotional state on a NG when
discussing javascript. If A says script B is of low quality because of
C, D, and E and the main response is "A is a not a nice person" then I
*know* which argument is more likely valid.

Yes, I don't think it's David's demeanor that causes several pages,
linked to from http://demo.qooxdoo.org, to display a white screen of
death in three of the five browsers I have handy.

LOL. Can't pin that one on me. ;)

Someone needs to kill Kenny (OMG) and get rid of his audience

Sanity is inversely proportional to the amount of badly written code
