I just saw the notice "Hello lugita15! Physics Forums values quality, civility and productivity. Please think of these three things whenever you write a post." For a moment I thought I was being given a warning or something.

The joke is a nice touch though.

Thanks for the feedback and I agree. I am working on it.
