Kinda like this off topic flame? Basically the prior point made by someone else is that if one encounters a post they don't like, if they just ignore it rather than telling thousands of people about the inner workings of their mind, the message quietly passes into oblivion. The off topic flame creates more posts. Wasting your time, unless of course you enjoy flaming. 98.775% of most complainers about off topic posts don't realize that complaints are off topic and 100% don't realize they are not the listmom. --- 10,000 trees may soon die in South Florida... <http://www.lobatelacscale.com>
