Some thoughts:
I think the reason people are so much nicer here is partly that, you may read something that, if someone said it to your face, would provoke an irate response, but you can't reply immediately, (no matter how fast you can type it still takes more time to post than to respond verbally) and you have a little time to cool off, relax, and acknowledge other's rights to their opinions.
whoops, run-on sentence, but I know you won't make fun of me for it!
Also, my typing speed improved by about 10 wpm over the summer, due to all my posting.
