UPDATE: The first guideline in the Guidelines for productive online discussion is "Be respectful. Treat others as you would have them treat you." Since this thread is otherwise quite informative, I have taken the uncharacteristic step of editing out a secondary discussion of what constitutes an insult and proper adherence to forum etiquette. If those contributing these comments have concerns about my decision, please e-mail me. Thanks.
