It's a moderated forum.  That means you don't get to say just anything you
please.

You are already calling for their heads on a pole?  It's a new speed record.

I think they are doing just swell.  But you can't please everybody.  If you want
free speach, go over to news:rec.games.chess.computer and say whatever you like
(within legal limits).  This forum exists for the sole reason that tangential
crap annoys a lot of people.  If it does not annoy you, then read it with relish
in a place where it is wanted.
