To all, a public apology:

It has been a long time since I have been active in Moderating. I made an error in conflating Moderation comments with substantive comments. That post is now canon in this thread, so I'm not changing it, but noting it. I ask that we, as I will, be cognizant of our rules and procedures. If we have an issue with a post or poster, PM a Moderator, we'll address it. Knock off personal comments. Thank you for your cooperation.

I now return you to our regularly scheduled thread.
