People tend not to pipe up and ask questions in a public forum, perhaps for fear of looking stupid. I think it takes a bit of courage to get over that reticence and speak up. By asking your questions in a public forum you've made it possible for a wider audience to benefit from the answers, and triggered several improvements to the docs and code. In this particular case, I just read your original question as "Is there a TiddlyWiki Classic theme for TiddlyWiki5?", but set in a bit of an angry font. So, please keep on asking questions!
