I would like to add an observation…

The core complaint appears to be the length of the postings.  To my eye, Avi’s style of posting is extremely verbose, which is not necessarily a bad thing; but perhaps taking some time to distill the thoughts to make a concise, on topic, point would be helpful in this case.  When discussions appear to ramble at length in odd tangents, the helpfulness to the beginner is diluted and the original point of the discussion is lost.
