   There is a scary tendency for people to go the arrogant dark side as   
   their knowledge increases, although Sinner isn't normally guilty of   
   such. Posts/email do have a habit of making short shrift appear to be   
   blatantly aggressive and rude unfortunately.   
      
   It's easy to forget what was difficult a long time ago.
