This topic was started for short questions. For better or worse, the question has been answered.
Ways to handle disruptive posters, pupils and so on and so forth are clogging up this thread. It is an interesting read, and I think it'd make an interesting Coffee House meta-thread. Please desist, any further off-topic threads will be rendered invisible and short suspensions may follow afterwards.
Thanks, comments directed to appropriate thread in my sig, thanks
