Don't take it personally. We just like to haze newbies. I've read some of your stuff and you are truly suffering from a whale-patron deficiency. I'm just a minnow and therefore of no help. Nonetheless, I upvoted this article not so much as a self-destructive act but more as a token (pun intended) of my appreciation for your unappreciated body of work. Keep on slogging; tomorrow is another day...
