Perhaps Amos could have started another thread also?

Or perhaps he was comcerned that an earnest and unknown volunteer guest may have deleted his new thread, if it was started with a cut and paste job?

Perhaps we should just always start new threads, just in case someone considers one's contribution to an existing thread is off topic?

Perhaps it may be better to just ignore posts that you consider to be off topic?

Maybe we can just discuss all the issues arising - as you would in a face to face conversation, with adults, without hiding behind 'the rules' or making them up? We have different views and ways of doing things - that is part of the magic of this forum.
