Cathy:
I absolutely did say something at the time! I commented that it
was rude to criticize the code of someone who was helpful enough to
present a working example. Perhaps you missed that one!

Lambasting another person's code when they were simply trying to help by
sharing it didn't seem too relevant to the stated topic either, yet no
one intervened THEN. This tells me we tolerate blatant rudeness, but
not humor interjected to defuse tension caused by the rudeness. Guess
it's all a matter of what our values are. The humor did get a bit over
the top. But not nearly to the degree that good manners were
disregarded.

See, folks, this is the part where I come across like I'm all
humor-deficient... I'm pretty sure that piercings and belly-button lint
aren't terribly relevant to the stated topic of the list.
It's all about the signal-to-noise ratio, kids. Please resist the urge
to push this one back up the hill again.
