The encouragement is much appreciated!
LOL, however sometimes in the sentence "Slashdot nerds are historically
overzealous and attempt to find even the tiniest (and as you found out,
usually inconsequential or outright invalid) openings" we need to change
"Slashdot" to "ClassicCMP". ;)

Slashdot's feedback forums are vast wastelands of narcissistic,
self-aggrandizing babble.
...and always has been. That's why, when I read slashdot comments, I do so
on level 5 and even then only from people who are marked "friend" or
"friend
of a friend" or "fan". I bypass 90% of the drivel that way.
