Wow, Tony, do you think in the future you could try to express
yourself with just a bit more civility and in a less
condescending tone?
Nathan expressed some thoughts he had, politely, and when out
of his way to come across in a non-critical and
non-confrontational manner.

There's just no need to insult other list members like this.
Frankly, it's this kind of treatment that make these lists
less productive than they could be. It intimidates less
experienced programmers from asking good questions, lest they
get treated the way Nathan was. And isn't helping out less
experienced coders one of the reasons this list exists?
And it also makes others less inclined to participate, or drop
off the list entirely.
It's NOT just so we can blast each other and show off our
highly dubiously assumed superiority.
With all the frustrations we put up with in our daily lives, I
would hope a list like this, especially since we are among
colleagues, could be a place we could at least cautiously
expect to be treated with respect.
