And continuing to read that page, I found this warm fuzzy, the likes of
which this list has seldom seen (thank the Maker!):

          ...I urge you to lower your mantle of omniscience and (following
the lead of Ann Landers) seek the advice of experts when the subject matter
is outside your area of expertise. Your ignorant responses are hurting the
fight against mathematical illiteracy.
            Sincerely,
                  David Loper
