Hey Group --

I'm not entirely innocent when it comes to off topic posts, but I was flamed
early and often and decided that the best course of action -- if I wanted to
remain a list member -- was to keep 95% of my posts on-topic.

95% OFF-topic seems to be the ideal for some members of this list, which is
to the detriment of the list in general. We're here to rag-chew old
computers.

Really, R.D., find yourself a newsgroup to sort this out in. You're sucking
up (free!) bandwidth and taking up everyone's time with your OT posts. TANG.

Sellam, this may very well be true. I know I am frustrated with the way the
list has been shanghied, but even asses have a right to post here AS LONG AS
THEY STAY ON TOPIC!

BTW I think your ideas -- 4 OT posts and kill the thread, etc. -- are very
appropriate considering the gross number of OT posts during the last year.

Just my 2 pesos worth --
