I agree, but sometimes enough is enough; that firewall admin title
thread got completely out of hand, IMHO.  People can smile at a little
silliness and still have enough sense to keep it from getting too
overwhelming.

I can't tell you how many times I've had a message for the list typed
up and ready to send and then thought better of it and desisted.  When
in doubt, I choose silence.  (It comes easier after being on the
receiving end of a few flames.)

This is the first (and last) I've had to say on the matter.
