	Indeed. As a company employee who takes his own time to follow
the nets and answer questions, and who doesn't get any compensation
(except for the gratitude of those whom he helps), I feek for what Jordan
is saying, and would like to encourage people who would flame to have a little
ordinary consideration.

	To not agree with something a company does is one thing, but to
blast the unofficial representatives of that company for something that
they have little control over is quite another.
