Good afternoon everyone!

Or good morning rather. It's 12:35 PM in Ranchi, Jharkand, India, now and I wanted to drop in while I had a solid internet connection.

The weather is gorgeous here and is just starting to heat up for the day. No rain is on the horizon just yet but I'm sure that will change. I was walking outside yesterday and came across a half dozen water buffalo. I was on a path a few feet above them and one turned, looked right at me, and made a slight charging motion. I froze until a boy who looked to be about six years old called off the water buffalo. Crisis averted. Your AP founder is safe.

I wanted to mention one thing I've gotten a couple of emails about but haven't had the bandwith to check out.

We cannot, absolutely cannot, have anyone insulting anyone else on this site. I have not and will not stand for it and neither will Primetime. This includes nasty sarcasm as well. We have grown quite a bit in the last few months and that means a lot of new opinions. People need to know what we stand for and what we don't.

Insults ruin the vibe of the site, degrades the work I've done for the last two years building this site and obviously degrades our other visitors. I have not banned anyone yet but if some of this nasty talk continues, some lucky person will get to be the first. I've built this thing on respectful and intelligent conversation and that will never, ever change. We'll have our growing pains but rest assured I have kept my eye on our community and its integrity.

I haven't been able to check the site much (I'm writing this off line) so I could be overstating this. But the comments that were emailed to me were inexcusable.

Thank you all for understanding and I advise you to make use of the "Flag comment" option under the actions link which is under each comment. That way, Primetime and I can easily track which comments the community finds offensive.
