If you can't do better, don't flame other people's work.

	Criticism != flame.
	Harsh, unwarranted, mean-spirited criticism = flame.

Did I forget to say that it was good work?  What's wrong with suggesting
a few improvements?  I'd have mailed the suggestions directly to the
author had the work been credited to someone.

And when I said, "I really don't have the time right now," that is
literally what I meant.  I was already late for class.  If you want to
email me a copy or repost them (I did neglect to save them) I'll try to
improve them myself as my time permits.

BTW, anyone have any improvements (or even suggestions for improvements)
on the War of the Worlds war machine below?  I don't think I captured
the perspective very well.
