Well, I have seen people accuse you of being abrasive but you aren't the
type I had in mind when I made the comment, you aren't here solely to be
snarky and you give good advice. Personally, I can tolerate quite a bit of
snap and/or arrogance from someone who is intelligent and does good work.
YMMV.
