In re reading my post, I realize that I left out the most important two parts - I do think this is the best message board on the web - on any topic - that I frequent. And that I think the moderators here do an outstanding job compared to moderators on other boards.
While there is always room for improvement on any site, I wish that the behavior of this board would roll over onto some of the technical boards (Java, Web Services) that I also frequent.
