Michelle-

Good point. This is supposed to be a place to exchange information, knowledge, and experience. Effects on blood pressure and need for valium seem a bit of an over reaction (no offense intended to those who experience this effect).

It’s a shame that this forum feels the need to provide a twit filter to be put up as a shield against . . what ???
Is someone a twit if they ask a question that exposes their lack of knowledge, or are they a bigger twit if they are too self important to try to offer assistance? Will concern about being filtered out as a twit by ones peers intimidate people and have a negative effect on participation?

The Fox community was traditionally a friendly group with a well developed sense of humor, willing to share knowledge and experience without being pompous, profane, or mean spirited. What happened(purely rhetorical)?
