>Zofsilence - you must be a very goal oriented guy (or girl). It's your first post, and already you're criticizing the old-timers. Hopefully you've been a reader long enough to know what kind of response you are likely to get. ;-)

You betcha.

I like most of the old timers, and I actually at one point reviewed some of Paul's old posts (from way back in the dark ages of SI- or are these the dark ages?), and he seemed like a pretty cordial guy. From what I've heard, he's the same way in real life. I tried to progress to find the point where his attitude changed, but I got really bored :)

Bottom line is, I'm a veteran of many things involving internet posts/chat, and any time a board has an individual with power of moderation, someone with the posting style Engel has isn't long for that board.

Having said that, I didn't come to rag on anyone, it just happened that the first post I clicked on after FINALLY buying a membership here was his, and I posted the first thing that came to mind.
