Jon Freeman's suggestion about 'lurking' before you jump in is a good one. I 'lurked' here for about a month before becoming a member and posting something, and I really think it helped me understand the place, and the people who 'inhabit' it. I've been here since... May? ...and only had two real bitter disagreements with members (even though I'm reluctant to call Conrad a 'member.' More of a glorified flaming guest, eh?). Which is quite a bit better than my real-life record during that time.

And welcome to Mudcat, SorP. You CAN'T leave. Your nickname is actually easy to remember:)
