Dood...

Great post. Other forums I frequent BBQ and then don't even bother to eat newbies - they just like to see them suffer. All forums struggle with newbies coming-in and re-introducing old topics. This forum alone stands-out in it's participant's willingness to refer to prior Threads (using Search) and welcome the new neighbors. We never know what knowledge, experiences or fun they might share with us. In our manner/style of referring and replying, it is (IMO) quickly obvious who has useful experience or knowledge to share. And, most importantly, we self govern - we keep opinion labelled as such, and refer to documentation when relevant.

Your post really credits Uncle Don, and his leadership of this place - who I think will show his typical wisdom in not deploying this neutron device.
