I’m never one to stifle dissent, or even just conversation, and I certainly ain’t got a formal role here, but to me it’s like being someone at a roadside incident who says “Stand back - give her air!”

It’s clear that even the most helpful of suggestions isn’t appropriate right now.

Obviously it’s been an effort to get things this far, and it must have been exhausting, for the calm, gracious and serene **Tubadiva** to snap at people, who were posting suggestions for improvement 45 minutes after the renaissance:

> [@](#):
>
> Give us a break, would you? A day or two, maybe, to shake stuff out?
> 
> We want to be considerate of our users and we appreciate your input but not freaking now, please…God give me strength!

So,  
\*\*please, just bite your tongue, hold onto the thought, save the suggestion for 48 hours or so, \*\*  
and by doing so  
**demonstrate your pleasure in being back!**

And I’m certainly glad to be here again!

So stand back - give the lady air! quit shoving! play nice!

Not called Redbossy for nothing!
