Graham Wegner wrote
a tongue-in-cheek post about spelling. Hailing from Australia, Graham finds it funny that "the Wikipedic wisdom of crowds defines the right spelling" for him.
Matthew K. Tabor
wrote a post in response to Graham, claiming that "spelling isn't a matter of opinion". In his response, Matthew not only critiques the ideas of Graham but also those of the people that made comments to Graham's post. A somewhat tense discussion ensues in the comments of Matthew's post, on the blogs of
some of the comment writers, and also in the Twittersphere.
How does one identify the line between a healthy debate and a downright ugly brawl?- What are the rules inherent to such discussions?
