Yes, FWIW, I think part of being polite is letting someone else
catch the ball every now and again. If you are a veritable
wizard, let the easy stuff slide by so that a cluebie can answer;
this saves your time and lets other people in on the game.
If you've been the only one posting lately, peace out for a
little while before you pounce on the next post.
We're all good people here, we know how to play nicely with others.

BOUNDARY, n. In political geography, an imaginary line between two
nations, separating the imaginary rights of one from the imaginary
rights of the other. :Ambrose Bierce, "The Devil's Dictionary" (1911)
