Voted down, then responding in case you don't know why: this is a discussion about micro-heaters.

Yes, it's a bit disagreeable to run across even minor, aside comments that disagree with something you believe strongly, but please just deal with that on your own time.

Because of course your comment will be unpleasant for people to read who feel just as passionately that you're wrong, and some of them may be compelled to post wall-o-text comments here to rebut your claims.

Here, in this discussion about micro-heaters.



The article was about saving energy using a specific approach _until_ the article's author took the side trip into world politics.


PS, this, "Voted down, then responding in case you don't know why" is passive aggressive.


Sorry, it's not the intended vibe -- people complain when they're voted down w/o explanation, so I'm trying to avoid that.

I mostly want to improve future discussions, not scold/shame people; my own posts aren't always on-topic and informative, though I like the goal.
