Sorry, we had to cancel 'T2T' due to overload.


This thread has been remarkable for the generally cool and balanced 'behaviour'* maintained while discussing subjects that normally bring out the impassioned worst of people.
Very refreshing and appreciated !

I am surprised that no one has mentioned this from Janis Ian...

... which should be read in its entirety along with the follow-up article 'Fallout'.
(Perhaps it is now considered 'old', but that would be an error.)

Another, and far more devastating threat to all of us, is exposed here !!!

As for the dear slink device, the posts have value in one regard... They encourage me to quote a great moderator on another forum...

Kindly refrain from abusive language in the conferences, and to borrow from an old saying, from this point on it's probably better for you to shut up now and appear stupid rather than keep posting and remove all doubt.
