My apologies if my post sounded disrespectful in any way though.
I wrote my post from the perspective of being a long time lurker on various tech forums who is only just beginning to feel I may be able to contribute on some topics (and only after many years of coding, reading & sponge-learning from sites like this one).
If it weren't for stories like this & people like yourself engaged in insightful discussion about them I personally would have missed a lot of "assumed knowledge" in the developer world, heck I wouldn't have heard of K&R (the shame!).
So I guess what I'm saying is: please don't leave, stay & help make us noobs less ignorant!
