Post #12,956 by addison 10/11/01 3:06:12 PM Reply	Wrong reasoning.... Cause he didn't accuse anyone of being LIKE the nazis. See, your reply, it was insane, just like Hitler. (That's a Godwin). :) Addison
Post #12,958 by inthane-chan 10/11/01 3:09:10 PM Reply	Depends on your definition. I was using [link\|http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/jargon/html/entry/Godwin's-Law.html\|this] one. "As a Usenet discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches one." There is a tradition in many groups that, once this occurs, that thread is over, and whoever mentioned the Nazis has automatically lost whatever argument was in progress. Godwin's Law thus practically guarantees the existence of an upper bound on thread length in those groups. However there is also a widely- recognized codicil that any intentional triggering of Godwin's Law in order to invoke its thread-ending effects will be unsuccessful. Yeah, it can be read both ways... "He who fights with monsters might take care lest he thereby become a monster. And if you gaze for long into an abyss, the abyss gazes also into you." - Friedrich Nietzsche
