Hopefully he senses my comments are not not malicious. My comments are not intended to start flame wars or attack people personally. I am passionate and assertive, while also clearly lacking some insight into properly conveying my ideas in a way appropriate for this venue. I do care about not offending people, and having comments move the conversation forward. I often fall short of that goal. In short: big heart, stupid mouth, work in progress.
