Some of my thoughts on the merits of thread drift:

If a topic becomes redundant,[as the original topic of this thread was IMO even before this thread began since it had been discussed ad nauseum on previous threads] then it is appropriate for members and guests to attempt to move the conversation to tangential and non-tangential topics which in & of themselves may be interesting, informative, and witty, and may also serve as a heads up to the person who repeats the same points over and over and over again that we got his message thank you very much, we don't agree, and now it's time for a change of subject.


In summation, I believe that positive vibrations can be sent in any number of ways. Purposeful thread drift can be one of those ways.
