Mark: that was too abrupt, even if the OP was being serious (and I 
suspect he may not have been, despite the absence of a smiley).

Cecil: I don't know if you really meant that seriously, but it certainly 
comes across as ungracious if you did. If you meant it half-humorously, 
then you need to throw in a smiley or a wink to show that you were joking.
