Rick - "playground" might be misconstrued so as to infer an insult,
which I'm sure you didn't intend.

Please, rather than applying an even sharper tongue and wit to your reply,
consider taking Kristian's post/recommendation to heart.

We've been dinged in the past for not being friendly enough with newbies, etc.
(i.e. this isn't the first time) so I think this is pertinent to address now.

Please try to be as friendly and polite as you can muster on the list,
rather than using it as a means of sharing sarcastic banter with all
of us.
