I'm not planning on having children myself, but you may be right, I might have it in me to be an okay dad :)
Definitely, I think that the people in PALnet often find me a bit of a nurturing, parental type. Helping is something that I derive great joy from, so it is a bit selfish too, I suppose!

Thank you for your kind words. If we all just slowed down and worked together to help users who don't understand or who are chasing the wrong methods, it may be that we could get some of them contributing and helping others too. It won't always work, but the effort is worth it. I appreciate your thoughtful comment!
