Quote - Threads shouldn't have tangents?  So we should take the tangent to a new thread maybe?  I'm not sure what the trouble is.  Nobody has insulted anyone or used vulgarity (for several pages, at least...)

This subject has been beaten to death in countless threads before, and it almost always ends badly.

Go ahead and do as you please. I'm watching it and may be doing pruning if anyone decides to be rash.
