Joe, aren't there a few things that we could ALL agree on?

1. There are BS Threads that are so ridiculous that they aren't worth anyone's time ie"what time is it where you are?"

2. There are Music Threads so obscure or even boring that they aren't worth anyone's time ie"alternate verse structure to Sir Giles of Cornwood sought"

3. That we have the ability to avoid or ignore each of these?

4. That we also have the obligation, as members of what is a COMMUNITY of people attempting to coexist in relative harmony, to use honest argument or respectful humor , rather than character assassination and intimidation to persuade others to our view? And shouldn't those who violate this behavior be held in scorn, whatever their motives?

The problem is not so much Music vs BS. It is the tactics being utilized in these arguments by some who are rightfully on the very fringe of this forum.
