John - I agree with you 100%. However as has been pointed out before, in "First Time Users Click Here" (which I know you are not) at the top of the site it reads:

"You have just wandered into a public bulletin board where you may find the airing of many controversial issues in and outside the boundaries of the chip hobby."

We get this on the board from time to time. A lot of polictial satire which goes both ways and a lot of Right and Left point of views. Take it for what it is worth, do with it what you want but pretty much anything goes here (within reason). We all just need to remember to remain gentlemen and ladies.

Take Care,
Tom Hanson
