Gene has been around this project just about as long as anyone.  Is there a
reason to be condescending towards people who are "just" users, or "just"
interested in the project?  I know that Gene knows an awful lot about flight
simulation.  I also know that Eric is a big boy and he can take care of
himself, but I'm less sure about those who seem to feel the need to lash out
at someone every time they speak.
