For people who just lurk, or those who do not have the time to devote in here, that mostly lurk and seldom post, wading thru dozens of OT stuff is cumbersome, in an attempt to find something to read or add comment to.
I agree with Richardo that this board could do a better job of posting OT stuff where it belongs. By the same token, whether something is relavent and on topic to one, may not be to another, so some compromise and tolerance is in order.
Lets face it, when it gets a little "dull" in between significant events, that we can really sink our teeth into and discuss 12 ways from Sunday, we kid around and that's not a bad thing where I sit, but others may not agree.
I respect what Richardo has said more than once on OT stuff, and wanted to publicaly acknowledge it.
Go EDIG!!
