Every board has a different feel and offers different folks different things. Everyone has their views on politics, sports (go Sox), etc. For CS - sure our reason for belonging starts with cigars, but the sports, politics, etc. are a part of the board's identity. And like everything else on the net, you can read it, or you can not. And if you're grossly out of line, well, this is a self-policing board and folks'll call you on it.

Sorry we are "sadly disappointing" you. And not to say take away from your 20 odd post count - but to suggest something that would change the dynamics on a board where your contribution amounts to nada either makes you sound arrogant or naive.

C-ya.
