Re: [Digital BW] For Threads that go Off Topic

Free speech my friend is obviously something with which you do not agree. What you do appear to subscribe to is the tyrany of the mob concept. Shame on you sir for your less than democratic approach to life. Now if you really wish to lower your blood pressure, may I recomend a twelve week course of daily aerobic exercise , which, by the way, will also increase the quantity of endorphine's in the brain and thus should improve your feel-good factor.

One less asshole in the world to deal with. Please note that I did not say bad photographer, I said asshole. Problem solved! As an extra bonus you can create a rule to deal with threads that you do not want to weed through any longer. Just copy the subject line into the rule and like magic, those emails also get deleted without getting your blood pressure up. If you have different email software you might try looking in help under "Email Rules" & see if this might be possible in your tool. This really is related to Digital B&W Prints, really!!! I subscribe to this list for information on this subject. Threads get off on tirades that are hard to avoid. My blood pressure goes up. I go yell at my neighbors dog. I am so upset I cannot capture images with my pinhole, brownie, 35mm, 6x6, 4x5, 8x10, DLSR cameras.....or to make prints. With this approach, ahhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!! This has been a public service announcement. You may now resume your regularly scheduled threads.
