...with a huge thank-you for keeping The Chip Board running. TCB is probably the epicenter of our hobby and a huge asset to all of us, and it's a shame that it has devolved into what it has. I can't imagine why anyone would want to share their political view in ANY public forum, much less this one. My own political opinions are private and will stay private.

Over the years I've had many conversations with many members about just this. Many of them are no longer members. I think that THE MAJOR reason that we lose so many members is not due to the current state of our economy, but rather to the vitriol that gets spewed on THIS BOARD. We need to end the political discussons NOW. We need to end the personal attacks NOW.

But again... thanks so much, Brian, for keeping it going and for keeping Greg's legacy alive.
