[QUOTE=3acresandatruck]  
I’d like to sing praise for her patience, as well. For example, people continue to put formatting in their answers which make the already tedious scoring process even more difficult. But where I would be spewing invective, denigrating their ability to read instructions for comprehension and penalizing the bajeebers out of them on their score, \*\*Dolores \*\*continues to just chide them gently (and, I’m certain she gets better results than I would).

And some of the quibbling over scoring matters - particularly when there’s all of 2 points at stake - \*\*Dolores \*\*takes the input graciously and rescores the whole dang thing…sometimes repeatedly. I’d have told 'em all to go pound sand.

So, add my thanks to the chorus.  
[/QUOTE]

How did you know exactly what I was going to say? 😃

Flings confetti for **Dolores**!

Dolores Reborn IS the sweetest ever, and after reading your posts, I’ll never bitch at her for sitting in front of the computer all night again.

Ok - y’all can stop now… 🙂

Thanks for all the praise.
