Someone once said we are all beggars...at least at some point. Allow me, Reader, to point out the unsung heroes of this site: those who respond to requests for assistance in trying to resolve some problem, for instance. These members in the shadows but standing by to meet our needs/requests are volunteers, and unpaid at that. They readily give of their time and time is a valuable commodity. (Try and get another minute of life while you are passing ever so rapidly behond this world!) This day I received such a response that was almost hypersonic. (Okay, I admit that is a bit hyperbolic, but you get the idea: it was fast and understandable and did the trick.) I have had the pleasure of wrestling a previous volunteer, and whose fulfillment of his duties in the completion of his task was not always appreciated. And, I can attest that the guy was not only a swell person but a dandy wrestler. (Kicked my ass but left no bruises. Truth!) Today I wanted to add a person to my favorite list. He doesn't seek this, but he deserves applause: thank you munichsubfight.

I hope that you, Reader, will take the time to offer your thanks when you find yourself in need of a solution to a problem, etc. on this site.

I agree. On the rare occasions when I have had a problem or a question, I have received speedy, helpful, polite responses from the volunteer support team. This really is an excellent website. Why would anyone give a "thumbs down" to your comment? That's just perverse.

It is a well-reasoned blog that needs no justification. But why would the naysayers object? Big words and big thoughts are considered "pretentious" by many here. They're incapable of speaking in those terms and they object to anyone who does.
