As someone who is frequently the initiator/encourager of OT conversation...I
just wanna say thanks to Victor. I agree 100%.

Oh...and the shirt is awesome...:-)

Subject: [NTLK] About off-topic stuff

Hey all. I had a long day - was filming presentations at work all day,

standing for around 8 hours at the back of an auditorium. Didn't read my

mail all day, and so now I'm home and catching up on 133 NTLK messages :)

Oh - and icing my calves :)

Anyways, I'm only through about a quarter of it, and I'm already noticing

that the OT thread going around is getting a little bit personal. It's

not like we haven't been to heck and back before during OT conversations,

so n ormally I wouldn't say anything. But on Friday I'm taking a three

week vacation and leaving things int eh capable hands of Paul and Grant.

I'd rather that they not have any problems while I'm gone. So, just

remember:

-If you think it's a troll, don't feed it. They only get bigger and

hairier.

-No one deserves to be attacked personally. Better to defeat people with

solid reasoning than insults.

-If you don't like what you read, remember you don't have to read it.

-Have fun.
