Yahoo Groups are not the perfect forum, but running something like a phpBB
forum is a lot of work.
Maybe Cha2uke, you would like to work on it?  Dave has enough on his hands
already and does more than anyone else. Otherwise please keep posting what
you can, but positivity is more useful than aggression.

Speaking for  myself I am grateful for many of your posts. English is not
everybody's native language so sometimes confusion can arise for that
reason.
