Thanks for the kind words. Think I should run for public office? I already
have a slogan:
ALL THE WAY WITH DAVID J.
And I'm the front runner in the polls.
I guess we're of different minds on making this a binary newsgroup. On
comp.cad.solidworks, they ignore the "ban" on binaries in text NGs and
just
post parts, jpegs, etc. anyway. And no one shows up wagging fingers at
them
(probably cuz they'd get royally cussed out if they did.) I couldn't even
find out on news.newusers.answers if it was possible to make that kind of
switch. Ever since they got s****ged this summer, revealing that their
moderation system was weak, at best, they've had tons of crap dumped on
them, legitimate participation is way down. And half my stuff doesn't even
get posted. You don't think I could be too abrasive, do you. Naaahhh!!
