Excellent choice. I already put in a good word for you Lance, so remember that next time I post a vicious ad-hom remark. (kidding of course).

Welcome, Lance.

I will soon start making inappropriate comments in various threads just to test your mettle. They will fall on the borderline of ad hominem but I will employ clever techniques to preserve deniability, such as "if anyone but you had written this, I would call them stupid and immoral, but, coming from you, I suspect the problem may lie with the awkward trochaic substitution in L4."
