Y'know, if you were actually interested in improving the quality of discourse here, you (or for that matter Will) could explain what you find wrong in what I wrote rather than making meta-comments about voting and imaginary "retaliation".

(For what it's worth, I haven't downvoted either Will's comment or yours. Though I'm thinking maybe I ought to downvote yours for consistency with my general policy of downvoting complaining-about-voting comments.)
