I think it will be the first time in 15 years I will disagree with Tim. I personally found the posting of Tom van der Bergh irritatingly disrespectful in many levels.
1. It does not respect my mailbox capacity 2. It does not respect CCP4 developers posting output from phenix.refine 3. It does not respect his supervisors and colleagues who (right now) look like fools (to me) 4. It does not respect himself, as I actually suspect he is a proactive motivated student who came out as a bit of a fool These said, I am rather easily irritated these days, so I will not comment on the irritable character of the email. As for the answers, some were funny, some were informative, some funny and informative. Not too much political correctness please, because we will soon start calling disordered loops positionally challenged polypeptide segments (*).
