Dunno Andy, Most of those lists are for people who share a common viewpoint, and it's just no fun debating someone who agrees with you! I, for one, would welcome a list where a wider variety of comments were allowed.... and would then honor the sanctity of the current list far more diligently, knowing that it was free of all sorts of OT stuff: not just religion, and politics, but isolated one-liners, general silliness, etc.. Strictly technical-- for when I'm in the mood! We are, after all ( well, some of us, anyhow ) multifaceted human beings: not just "tuning forks", as it were. And I, for one, would find it MUCH easier to control my "OT Outbursts", were an officially designated repository for them ordained. And I have a suggested name, too!------------ "The Piano Wire: Uncut Version" Those who did not want to participate could simply not subscribe to it. Problem solved!
