Sorry for the late response...

It was one of my threads!

Anyway, it was a very informative experience for me (I was Slashdolt at that 
time).  I just re-read portions of it.  I think I've matured quite a bit 
since those days.  I hope so, anyway...

The most painful part for me was re-reading something I typed in (bad) 
French in response to Gilles' mentioning the boar skeleton.  Alas, I was 
young and impetuous.
