HN guidelines:

Please don't use uppercase for emphasis. If you want to emphasize a word or phrase, put asterisks* around it and it will get italicized.*

I also use _underscores_ sometimes. Does just as good a job at emphasising, but without seeming so shouty.



Ah, gotcha. It's an old habit from my writing style.


Far more disturbing than these for me was the parent's assumption of bad faith on my part... :\


Sure. But it's necessary to follow all the guidelines, not just some of them. Also, you responded to incivility with incivility ("which you yourself apparently didn't read"). Please don't do that, even when provoked.


Tough, but I'll try. Thanks.
