No comment about dogmattic or brow-beating? There is more than one right way 
to do almost everything. The presumption you make by propounding the "one 
true way", as though you hold some monopoly on truth is totally and 
completely offensive. The writer, not the reader, is responsible for 
presenting his thoughts efficiently and effectively. Does this make it a 
rant, whine, or a whinge? I'm pleased to be banned from the company of your 
ilk.
