I must say that I've seen a recent trend toward very good moderation here- closure of "idiot" threads, tersely- (and appropriately-) worded comments from moderators about the use of the search function and the value of reading the new-person information, followed by closure of these redundant threads. It's been very refreshing, and kudos go to the couple of most-present mods that we currently have. From reading his postings and advice, I trust that dstan will continue in the same vein and I welcome him to the moderating team.

Cheers.
