Yeah but writing someone to tell them that all their mail goes in 
your trash and to stop posting things that are not of interest to you 
is not polite.  It is also strange that someone would take it upon 
themselves to try to define the breadth of "Off Topic".

Also what is it that we are supposed to think differently about?   As 
I understand it this is a group of people who by sharing their 
experience with a certain product have somewhere along the road 
gotten the idea that they are interested in each other enough to 
share their views on other matters as well.   So that we could do 
this without interfering with the functioning of the LUG Joeri was 
kind enough to create a forum for that to happen.  Who is Frank 
Koistra to come in here and tell us what we should or should not be 
talking about.
