Nothing terribly special... mostly two points:

1. The way Mike made his point left lots of room for people to take it
in different ways, and I wanted to remind folks to be clear.

2. Over time, various participants have angered various others, often
leading to offline (and sometimes online) complaints.

I just wanted to use the opportunity to remind everyone that snark
doesn't help, even if it momentarily makes one feel good.  The
reminder wasn't addressed specifically.
