Geoff:
Speaking for myself, i've posted very rarely in the last few weeks. Why? 
Because many of the threads just don't grab me and, in several cases, they 
go round and round with same arguments being propounded by the same 
members who never seem to move their position and who seem to believe 
that if they say the same thing often enough, everyone else will accept their 
view....

...and who seem to believe that if they say the same thing often enough, 
everyone else will accept their view....

...and who seem to believe that if they say the same thing often enough, 
everyone else will accept their view....
