From the r-help posting guidelines:

> Good manners: Remember that customs differ. Some people are very direct. Others surround everything they say with hedges and apologies. Be tolerant. Rudeness is never warranted, but sometimes `read the manual' is the appropriate response. Don't waste time discussing such matters on the list. Ad hominem comments are absolutely out of place.

It appears IMHO, that some posters are exempted from following the guidelines.  I can cite the specific  email if anyone cares.  It shouldn't  matter how important the person is, if they fail to follow the guidelines.
