Agreed. I went and looked using the search function. I may have missed some
but I found a number of posts from Matthew going quite a ways back. Some were
hyperbolic, but none (that I found, but I may have missed some) were
vitriolic. Nothing wrong with hyperbole, mind you.

Not that it has any bearing on
what happened (IMHO).

Actually it does, I think. If you've been around a while there is no longer
the "well I'm new and didn't know how things work" excuse. Not that it is a
valid one even for the most rank newcomer, because the posting setup screen
requires you to verify that you have read the ToS.

So, OK, it doesn't have any bearing.
