	Flaming - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Flaming is the act of posting messages that are deliberately hostile and insulting, usually in the social context of a discussion board (usually on the Internet).
		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.

	Flaming
		Flaming is always somewhat controversial -- the primary reason for this being that it is rather a randomly controlled process, and as a result, it is all too easy to damage fibers below the surface.
		Additionally, as flaming is usually thought of as a "cosmetic" step, many guys then subject the strips to a regular regimen of heat treating, thus, risking further damage to the fibers.
		Many makers have believed that flaming (and heat treating) is entirely detrimental to the cane, since the "toasting" effect is clearly visible, and since that effect is concentrated on the most critical fibers.

	The Art of Flaming -- Netiquette, by Virginia Shea, page 71 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Although flames often get out of hand, they have a purpose in the ecology of cyberspace.
		Many flames are aimed at teaching someone something (usually in overstated language) or stopping them from doing something (like offending other people).
		Flame messages often use more brute force than is strictly necessary, but that's half the fun.

	Pictographs, Quoting, and Flaming (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		This study examines the nature of flaming (a form of hostile communicative behavior) in computer media by exploring, in the context of five escalating levels of argumentative message, the effects of the pictographs and quotations (which are commonly found in electronic messages) on the perception of flaming in messages.
		The relatively simple operationalization of flaming that emerges from this study (a flame is a message that is antagonistic toward a previous message) raises questions of just how distinctive flaming is. Antagonistic messages occur in many contexts, and it is hardly unusual for such messages to be regarded as undesirable by their recipients.
		Flaming, it would appear, is ultimately a well publicized artifact of a set of limited experimental manipulations that does not generalize to electronic media as broadly as was first thought.

		But Netiquette does forbid the perpetuation of flame wars -- series of angry letters, most of them from two or three people directed toward each other, that can dominate the tone and destroy the camaraderie of a discussion group.

		Flame wars can break out when one person tentatively takes a position that another participant feels strongly about.
		When flame war veterans see one of these topics come up, they often restrict their reply to something like, "This is flamebait; I'm not touching this topic." Inexperienced users, on the other hand, blithely charge in, and the same tired arguments are trotted out for the millionth time.
		It is exceedingly rare to see somebody change their position during a flame war, no matter how much the facts are stacked against them.

	Paul McCartney : Flaming Pie - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		A largely acoustic collection of simple songs, Flaming Pie is direct and unassuming, and at its best, it recalls the homely charm of McCartney and Ram.
		But when he works on a small scale, as on the waltzing "The Song We Were Singing," "Calico Skies," "Great Day," and "Little Willow," he's gently affecting, and the moderately rocking pop of "The World Tonight" and "Young Boy" is more ingratiating than the pair of aimless bluesy jams with Steve Miller.
		Even with the filler, which should be expected on any McCartney album, Flaming Pie is one of his most successful latter-day efforts, mainly because McCartney is at his best when he doesn't try so hard and lets his effortless melodic gifts rise to the surface.

		When the title was changed, he re-recorded the song, using the same words and melody, but changing the word "fl" with "flaming".
		The hot "Elvis Sings Songs From Flaming Star" album is much preferable to the movie, which cuts the musical performances down to a minimal two.
