    The only thing I see that bothers me sometimes is when a serious thread goes down the toilet. Oh and Bob and am not talking about you! You always provide help based on what you know and I really like how you welcome new comers. So again not pointed at Bob at all. But some seem to take the joking or whatever you want to call it way over the line. Serious posts can sometimes get so much dribble that having to read all through them to "learn" something is just not right. It also makes following a thread difficult.

    There are some posts here I think are important and historic in what they contain. But when you have to read through 10 posts to get 1 with good info, or to even be able to follow the topic because of useless posts scattered within them, it is really not good for the community. It makes doing research hard.

    The thread that was deleted maybe was not the right way to approach the problem, but the point the OP made was in fact valid.

    Sorry if I PO a few here but that's the way I see it too.... Maybe I am too serious a person but in my opinion, good info should not be polluted with jokes and dribble if it is not necessary.

    I have nothing to add . . . except that I enjoy Bob's posts, I agree with him often, and sometimes he pisses me off . . . which is normal in life, and I like Jethro Tull, too! Oh, and I hope Bob shows up at SpyderQuest, as I'd like to buy him a beer!

    Default when I was young

    and worked in a traveling band.. once up north in rock island IL the river was flooding and the "family" bar we were playing at was just about 2 blocks away from the river rising....stripper bar on the way to the club where we played,,, open window for all to see in.. brain strain for what I retained in the brain, going down the street to the club.. I was only in my 20's. we played tull a lot.. toothless guy running around wanting to hear more Jethro TooL.. old guy introduced me to his wife the second time on 2 different nights .. 2 different women

    don't mean to hijack the thread .. just too much music we played , when we were young.. great TULL forwards.. thanks

    Completely!!! Those who post most of the time just to see their name in Print or to make one funny comment after another after another after another without any content or links that can "Help?" newcomers are Not doing the group any favors!
