Cripes, I made a suggestion and I get this. Talk about football. Talk
about cars, beer, whatever. Who gives a crap, right? You'd be hard
pressed to find anyone here who thinks I am a control freak about the
list. Let's just open it up to anything Robert feels like, because
it's all about Robert.
I get people complaining that anything not specifically about making a
PCB at home is off topic. I get people complaining because I stop
threads that wander off into personal topics. The first I can handle,
the 2nd type just want everything for their personal convenience, and
screw everyone else. I get all kinds of wierd accusations and demands.
Oh, yeah, you're welcome. I should be grateful for the paycheck I
(don't) get for running the list. I'm sure you're one of those guys
who screams at cops directing traffic when you don't get waved through
when you think you should.
And you are -supposed- to be second guessing yourself before you post
a topic on anything but a general chat list. Just because you put
"drilling station" in the subject line doesn't make it on topic here.
You are obviously a beginner designing a rudimentary power supply.
Just the thing for Electronics_101 list. Just because you buy some
transistors on eBay doesn't make eBay discussions on topic.
Nothing like baiting the listowner.
