	Flaming - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Flaming is said by some to be one of a class of economic problems known as The Tragedy of the Commons, when a group holds a resource (in this case, communal attention), but each of the individual members has an incentive to overuse it.
		Whereas a flame war is usually a particular spate of flaming against a non-flamy background, a holy war is a drawn-out disagreement that may last years or even span careers.
		Use of the term "Holy War" implies that the root of the disagreement is a clash of values, and intractible of resolution except by agreeing to disagree.

		The flamethrower, which brought terror to French and British soldiers when used by the German army in the early phases of the First World War in 1914 and 1915 (and which was quickly adopted by both) was by no means a particularly innovative weapon.
		The flamethrower was inevitably refined over the intervening centuries, although the models seen in the early days of World War One were developed at the turn of the 20th century.
		By the close of the war flamethrower use had been extended to use on tanks, a policy carried forward to World War Two.

	Hacknot - The Art of Flame War
		The following are a few tips and techniques that I've learnt in the course of a great many arguments, flame wars and other "vigorous discussions" that may help you argue more purposefully, and thereby come to view argument as a stimulating activity to be relished, rather than an ordeal to be avoided.
		Anger is what turns a discussion into an argument and then into a flame war.
		Remarkably often, the act of precisely defining the topic will serve to circumvent any subsequent argument, as it becomes clear that the warring parties do not have conflicting positions on a given subject, but instead are talking about different subjects entirely.

	"Liberal Press Misquoting Paul Wolfowitz on Iraq War" by Brandt Zembsch (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		This is patently different than the Guardian's spin (no, lie) that Wolfowitz said the U.S. had "no choice" regarding going to war in Iraq because of a too-tempting-to-pass-up-neo-imperialistic-oil grab-opportunity.
		The notion that the war was ever about oil is a complete piece of nonsense.
		But there should be no doubt whatsoever this was a war undertaken because our President and the Prime Minister of England and the other countries that joined with us believe--and I think they believe correctly--that this regime was a threat to our security and a threat that we could no longer live with.
