Hi, Gunner,
I'll add my thanks to you and to all for avoiding OT posts on this group. I browse RCM, and I don't really mind the OT posts there, because I know that that group functions that way, and I tend to skip over a good many topics anyway (on and off topic). But this newsgroup I read "cover to cover," so I really appreciate the fact that we tend to stay on topic. By the way, IMHO, you clearly have a lot to offer both groups (one of my life's ambitions: to visit your back yard someday!), and I don't in the least mind your sigs -- contrary to what someone suggested earlier, that to me is *not* equivalent to posting OT. Sometimes I agree with the sentiments in your sigs, and sometimes I disagree, but I always find them interesting and provocative. Should I ever feel the need to comment on one of them, I'll send you an email--or post in RCM! :)
Andy
Well, crud -- I just realized that my thanks for not posting OT is itself an OT post! Somedays you just can't win ...
