You don't have to read anyone's novels, you know. Otherwise, well, look for yourself ^

Ken, thank you for posting this, because I hope it'll serve to remind everyone of good etiquette when it comes to discussion. I realize that, by now, most people who read CD regularly can't stand me, but I don't have the time or patience to start trouble for no reason. I feel strongly about what I choose to reply to, I have faith that my reply offers something new to the discussion, and I take the time to, at the best of my ability, be intelligent, considerate, and comprehensive.

I could only hope that others do the same, but it's become quite clear to me that they do not.

So, in that vein, forgive me for being the slightest bit unappreciative of having my work, time, and effort degradized and labeled as 'drivel'. I work very hard at what I do here, and I don't think I should be faulted for having that reflect in my writing.

I'm sure there are others that feel the same. Truthfully, I appreciate the discussion here a great deal, and it helps me to gain insight into other robotics people in arenas outside of FIRST. FIRST does not a person make, and these rare glimpses into the lives, opinions, and motivations of other people are enlightening.

Keep it civil, I think. But, please, keep it up.
