Come on guys, put an end to this topic.
Looks like you people dosen't have any thing worth doing. Other than nagging on 
an 
old topic
 
Take it easy.
Merry christmas and happy new year to all

First of all, Denise, you had 4 cents worth (just kidding). Second, since the 
history of SQR and the foreigners stealing our jobs are the only two non 
problems discussions I remember being discussed, I don't think it is that 
absurd. I'm not linking the two for any other reason than to show they are, in 
my opinion, off topic. 

Finally, I'm all for majority rules. It looks like I'm outnumbered on this so 
I will not post anymore on this topic.

Merry Christmas all.

Bob

P.S. There may have been other threads that are off topic, I just don't 
remember them.
