The support I've received and watched others receive on this list is way better than any support I have ever paid for. And good clear questions always provoke well reasoned discussions of the highest quality here. I am not exaggerating when I say I have learned as much here as I have from any book. I feel ashamed when someone comes along and doesn't get this, insults the team and disrespects all their hardwork. Since no doubt this will happen again and again, I hope this expression of gratitude will serve as a small counterweight to current and future injuries you guys must endure.
