I believe it is still necessary (and a good thing) to
post messages on the record that debunk technical fallacies.

Thats right. That's why I debunk them. The lying children call me names.  
They really hate it when you debunk their fallacies.

Vixie is a "screamer", like John Bolton. I'd love to say "procmail Vixie",
but he has too much control over DNS root servers to ignore him. I did 
that back in the early 90's. He was a jerk then, and I decided I had 
better things to do, than work on DNS.

But his judgement is so poor (on so many subjects) that he needs close
supervision, regardless of how detestable his personal behavior is.  
Indeed, his detestable behavior over the years is what has caused people
not to want to deal with him or his bad judgements.
