It makes a difference.

If you think that those of us keenly interested and supportive of Q's efforts appreciate folks coming on these threads with great smug fanfare and prissy-ness and pooping in our punch bowl, you're wrong.
We are Constitutional conservative FREEPERS. We support people freely expressing their opinions with mutual respect etc.

Such folks tend to come across as thinking they know more than God and we do NOT take kindly to that kind of attitude.
