Sometimes Twitter feels like when the wierdo harangues you on the bus. Do you respond or stare resolutely ahead pretending not to hear?

@PhilosophyExp so very true. I should print that out and stick it above my computer. -

@SteveCooke I *never* respond to rage bloggers, twitter trolls, etc. It really isn't worth even a small amount of effort. -
@PhilosophyExp it's a good policy - I generally feel much happier when I walk away from fruitless arguments & do something positive instead. -
@SteveCooke Right. Much more fruitful to engage with good faith, thoughtful, knowledgeable interlocutors. Then one can learn things.
