Not in the past year or so...Almost all politics.

Even in the early days, people asked that a new thread be created to take the politics off thread...the squatters prevailed.

Come on Cary. How can you argue that a group of people having a purely political discussion on a thread that is supposed to be dedicated to AMAT is perfectly acceptable because "you" have all agreed to do it?

It is a simple operation to start a new thread dedicated to any topic you wish. Usurping another thread to your own purposes with disregard to the rights of all others is...well, kind of dictatorial...don't you think.

Squatters say "Rest of world - If you don't like talking politics, don't come to the AMAT thread because we want to. So there."
