Give us a break, Art. It's a legitimate beef, newcomer or not, and responding to perceived presumptuousness with pomposity isn't helpful.

Might I suggest you might have held your tongue (or typing fingers) a bit longer then, until you got to know some of us better. It just so happens that a lot of those "substantive messages" come from the same people who occasionally speak about golf balls or odder objects. If you find the golf balls get in the way of a clear "drive" beyond the "fairway", well, I suppose its your choice as to the amount of noise you are willing to tolerate to get to the signal. Just wondering, do you make it a habit of arriving at a pub as a newcomer to tell the regulars what they should be drinking? ;-) Not even a "social" drinker, Art [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > I'm a newcomer to filmscanning and to this list and wonder why we all > have to listen to personal humor like this silly little thread about > golf balls.
