Yes, I did respond but I tempered my response so that the Nancy boys and Panty Waists would not be offended.


However, looks like I failed..............

Its more than the "other forum", there are additional forums that crack on CF, it's hard to defend so much wackiness.

Back in the early days, it was 90% helpful info, not so much anymore.

i like the wackiness. it adds flavor to what sometimes is a dull, overly & unnecessarily "diplomatic" atmosphere. it adds the human element, not mr. perfect techomanuals in every breath
