Just wanted to announce my presence here. This seems to be a great forum and as an added bonus I can get to it from work! I just hope I don't offend anyone or upset anyone. So hello to all.

Welcome! I have been here for a few years off and on and 99% of the people here are people that I would not being neighbors with. I may not agree with all that is said, but that is the beauty of this forum is that you can agree to disagree and everyone seems fine with it.

Hey A_P, welcome aboard.

I think we all try to keep it reasonably civil, and focus on subject matter instead of personalities. That makes the forum work. Anything else is a waste of time.

FWIW, sooner or later a topic will get you totally PO'd. IMO the correct response is: "let's agree to (strongly) disagree and just move on."

Edit: Any background info you'd like to share? What sort of stuff are you interested in?

well, this could go either way - i think there's a word missing between "not" and "being".

'mind' or 'like' are two possibilities. i've voting for 'mind'.

Welcome aboard newguy! I agree this is one of the most civil boards I've ever seen. Enjoy your time here....
I too surf this all the time at work, from my phone instead of a computer. For some reason they don't seem to trust me with one of those wink
