    I think the issue here is that Anonymous posts rate less benefit of the doubt. Which is why, even with an insulting and fairly inappropriate reply, BrowserUK's node is still rated positively (+11 -7) as I type this. It's why I at least ++d it. If it had a monk's handle on it, I probably would have --d.

    Not much of a right to be insulted: nothing ventured, nothing lost.

    What makes me "no pope"?

    1. That I thought it?
    2. That I wrote it down?
    3. That it contains a mild expletive?

    Oh! And the "update" was an addition.
