These are the kinds of inane comments that serve no purpose except to 
make an angry person even angrier. By sending a message such as this, 
you're only giving proof that her impressions are true. She has been a 
valuable resource for us all, and has posted many insightful messages, 
including the one to which you are replying.

Just remember that there are about 200 subscribers to this list, most 
of whom never post. Those who take the time and effort to share their 
expertise with us are a valuable few. We should go out of our way to 
encourage them.

It is possible to disagree with people in a civil way, and I usually 
try to do so. I regret my flippant joke at the end of the post about 
DVDs, because I didn't know the light in which it would be taken. But, 
I will remember that my words are often read in a different spirit than 
that in which they were written.
