Personally, I'm not a fan of web boards. I'm much less apt to participate in
one. If I had my way, this would be a newsgroup (and I guess the real
question on how this list gets all of the traffic while c.s.n.misc is,
essentially, dead).

But I appreciate that newsgroups are harder to use for some. I took me a
while to get a news provider.

Besides, a web board would have just as much OT stuff as not.
