Please note that many members of thechat have a fairly long (or at least
in-depth) history, and know each others' personalities, viewpoints, and
sarcastic tones quite well. It's important to remember this when reading
through *any* list, and read messages accordingly.

For example, if you'd read most of Madhu's posts over the last 6 months or
so, you'd see that he's:
1) a serious atheist
2) a humanitarian
3) sarcastic to the extreme
4) egalitarian
5) rational
6) a nice guy

All of which might lead you to recognize that his comment was, indeed,
facetious.

If you're concerned at his *application* of sarcasm, please make sure to say
so directly, so we can argue it into the ground... :)
