A search in the Gmane list archives suggests that this started in
January 2003 with a message from the listMom, Heather Nagy:
It goes farther back than that, but I'm not sure by how much. Someone
mentioned ch**se, it started a stream of responses that went on for
weeks, generated hundreds or thousands of messages which debated the
superiority of one type of ch**se over another, the countries that
make the best ch**se, why one country's product is inferior to
another, what each type was best for, who like which type, who hates
which type and why, etc. etc.
After perhaps a thousand messages, the topic was banned. Since then
it's beome the catch-all word here for just about any subject that
could incite controversy and is off topic.
Hey, that's really fascinating; how about a thousand message thread on
ch**se; we could try and break the world record for the longest thread
on a Use-List....................
Pass the Camembert.
