First off, it doesn't have to _end_ - Godwin's Law states that, once one
of the participants in a discussion mentions Hitler, that poster loses
the argument and no further meaningful discussion can take place -
meaningless/flamewar discussion sure can and usually does.  Second, that
was only ever conclusively shown to apply to Usenet; web boards and
email lists are still sort of a grey area.
But there wasn't even an argument here anyway; Glenn's sig was what
mentioned Hitler.

ObStella: Anybody think it's possible to write good enough music to do a
Beatmania / Parappa style game on the 2600?  I was musing about that
today..
