Hmmmm ! On a personal note, well one of the major points is that this is "The Mudcat Cafe" The headers Bs etc. are designed to alert to the content. There is no obligation to click on a BS thread, or post to it. I do not think that discusion, properly contained within the parameters of decency does any harm at all.The fact is that serious questions are dealt with usually within 24 hours, but admitedly it can be as long as 2 or three years. But it is answered.
To take a recent thread on Paul Robson - may not be pure music but information was circulated.
No, long may the Cat continue.
