I think that's a very narrow way of viewing the forum. Its purpose is to allow
pretty much any topic to be discussed as opposed to the rather exclusive
subjects here. Naturally, you'll see all kinds and types answering, but just as
here when you see empassioned posts declaring a program or programmer to be bunk
without any genuine argumentation, one is free to ignore it.
