Please move the two threads I started
"leave it to Beaver" and "OK, here's the plan"
To the "General" area. I made a mistake posting this stuff here.
Apologies,
Deej

Look, what if we all make a rule... ONLY music-related stuff
on this section of the NG? Granted, if we made it Paris-only
topics at this point, there'd be like two posts per week, but
what if we just said: "anything music-related is cool - all
other stuff is off-limits", and if someone wants to rant about
global cooling they can place ONE post here that simply says
something like "I'm ranting about global cooling over on the
general group if anyone wants to join in" - ONE post only, no
responses allowed on this section.
Whaddya think?
???
Anyone in favor?

Yes. I am in favor of this. I think that's sort'a the way Kim had this
figured and I am one of the worst about straying OT.
I was out of line.

I'm sure Kim will weigh in with another reminder about where to post what.
There's no real reason to start political threads here at all. Just post
'em in the General group to begin with, no notice needed. Anyone here
who is interesting in the discussion will find them there.
Recently saw two useful rules for getting along in forums:
-Thou shalt not post something intended to offend.
-Thou shalt not be easily offended.
Words of wisdom...
Cheers,
-Jamie

Deej, don't blame yourself, it was somebody else that threw the racism Molotov
cocktail on the NG.
