To Snap or not to Snap?

[Jim Johnson]

Tom, I'm confused.. nobody has attacked you, just a couple questions about
your design practices. If a person can't question you, than there must be a
problem somewhere.

I think the amount of stuff that you've created, and the quality, speaks
for itself. At times I did wonder if you found time to actually build it
all - but you answered that. After somebody asked.

Tolerance goes both ways - people should not ridicule your designs (again,
I haven't seen anyone do that - maybe I missed it), but at the same time,
we should not have to worry about a major contributor quitting the group
and shutting down his web site if someone says something negative about his
work.

I hope you stick around.
