>I just felt that Sam's quick and courteous reply deserved some sort of response from me, because I always respond quickly to my friends, and even though he doesn't know me, I consider Sam to be, somehow, a friend.

I remember that feeling... I was a lurker for a long while before I started posting, but I remember that when I did, I already felt like a member of the Rinkworks community. It's sort of odd now, being on the other end of that... knowing you know things about me when I didn't even know you existed. But anyhow, welcome. Random diatribes are ALWAYS welcome here- we're all rather good at them.
