"as described below" - you might want to be a bit more explicit here? It did cause a fair bit of confusion in the soapbox thread before people worked out what you meant, after all...

Here's hoping the whole process will become moribund.
Thank you for the effort. And thanks to the original author of the 'Modest Proposal', whose name I've forgotten at the moment.
I have bitten back my normal impulse at sarcasm in reply to this whole effort.
I will continue to try to behave.
No promises.
