Not a problem. I am not hurt.  Neither was I really angry when I posted that
message. I was just stating a fact. Note that it was in response to the
following:

This note does not contain a single question. Later Mike posted his questions
and all of them were answered (I also added the answers to the FAQ, I wish
Mike did that instead). I know there are a few people out there
who contribute to the FAQ and I thank them all. However, there are many
others  who complain but do nothing about it when they are given the chance
(specially after their questions have been answered).
