     Really, calling the OP a "nub" ( whatever the hell he means by that)
isn't an insult? And you think there was no condescending insulting tone
overall?


If you don't know what the word means how did you determine it was an
insult? (or was that the insult?).

	Reading & comprehension skills.

You sound like it offended you personally - which um, seems misplaced.

No, not personally offended; just irritated at the near "holier-than-thou" attitude that seem to come up all too often in support mailing lists.

Personally I believed these sort of personal criticisms belonged
off-line, but I'll make an exception in this case - in deference to your
extensively qualified authority.

P.S. Please wrap you lines at 78 characters or less (72 is common), if
nothing else it may mitigate your critique on how things should be done.


Set at 72 for a while now. Now sure how it'll mitigate my critique, but I'll trust you on that.
