I certainly find the discussions here interesting, although I don't
read all of them. I learn a little something new everyday.

It seems to me that this is by natura an intimidating list. The level
of knowledge of most of the regular posters is pretty high, so I don't
feel like I have much to contribute. When I have contributed, I've
been pretty bluntly corrected. I didn't feel insulted or brushed-off,
but I can see how someone might.

(I know that the way people communicate on many forums I'm a member of
would be seen as rude or hostile to people who aren't used to it.
Wasn't there an article on this passed around a while ago?)

It might do for some of the posters here to remember that some of us
are just learning, not used to lists like this, or both. It can be
easy to forget and assume that everyone is on the same page as you
are, so to speak.
