Chris, -OT-
We ARE making progress here. Many posters with"OFF TOPIC" messages, comments, diatribes, etc, are beginning to use " OT " at the top of messages. It takes time to discipline onself to visit appropriate boards because there are chummy sub groups and cliques that evolve to the level of chat rooms. And, especially with this Clinton perjury thing, it is really hard to contain ones emotions when some on the way left or far right spouts nonsense.
Eventually, with very busy boards, IMO, more people such as yourself will call for some discipline in postings. I think it is kind of like a township growing to a metropolis. What is growth without discipline?
So long as the "OT" is there and the messages don't go over a screen, IMO, we have a satisfice solution. Under the circumstances, I don't think one can expect more. I am sure that after all the hotheads have spewed from left and right this weekend, the Clinton/Perjury topic will fade from the DELL board.
Good Fortune.
