Bill,
Since your blog post didn't allow comments, I'm submitting the
original message thread in question right here:

It seems to me that Lynch was actually just saying, "you seem as
though you have the technical know-how, so jump in feet-first and
let's get going!" It wasn't "ripping [you] a new one", as you
suggested in your post, unless your "old one" was that defective in
the first place and was inadvertently replaced by the "new one". ;-P
Before you make a public post demeaning the community that drives
the project you are using, no doubt, to help put food on your table,
why not take a moment to read this fantastic Wikipedia article:

Give a man a fish, he'll eat for a day. Then you'll find out he was
allergic and is hospitalized. See? No good deed goes unpunished....
