OFF TOPIC POSTS was Chips AhoY!

2003-07-29 by Martin Wesley

Okay guys. Enough already! I should not have to point out that this is way
off topic. Please take it off list.

Also remember that just because someone starts an off-topic thread doesn't
mean should continue it. Please try to be part of the solution rather than
part of the problem.

Thanks,
Martin Wesley
