Linda, from what I can tell, the tone in this discussion thread  
changed from the "professional", "technical" mode with this statement:

The folks on this list are a very friendly and helpful bunch, and I  
think some of them did not take well to your implying that they were  
demeaning to you.  You might not have meant it to be accusatory, but  
it certainly seems to have been interpreted that way.

Further appeals to a non-existent "moderator" and typing in ALL CAPS  
only fanned the flames, and so I think perhaps it would be good if  
folks just stepped back from the keyboard a bit and took some deep  
breaths.

Also, Linda, I would like to stress that although this mailing list is  
an open, unmoderated forum for technical discussion, even the veterans  
don't go about making proclamations about what people should and  
should not post... I think if you stick to asking technical questions,  
people will respond in kind.
