>But, I agree with another point that was kind of implicit (I think) in Jeff's comment. I'd like to see a Technical Chatter thread and a Non-Technical Chatter thread.

on the same wavelength - I'd like to see the chatter section in each forum changed to "technical chatter" and a new forum for the b.s. chatter in order to completely get it out of my face. Better yet... make the b.s. chatter forum for PUTM only so as to save on some banwidth perhaps!
