**cooouuuugh**  :wideeyed:

What?  Did I use the wrong term?

My website is hosted on his server.
OK, wise crack fell flat.    :sick: 

I did not know Mark was hosting your website, so yes you are a quiet tenant.   

My wisecrack was referring to your wise cracks you make here.   :-D
I + XI = X is true ...  ... if you change your perspective.

I no longer CAD or Model, I just hang out here picking up the empties beer cans

I fail to understand what you are getting at.  Could you please elaborate.

How about we get rid of News and use Lagniappe?

How about we get rid of News and use Lagniappe?

My one cent opinion is not to get rid of them.  These sections and others like them are The Swamp's water coolers and kitchens that are in the offices.  Places to shoot the bull.  If you get rid of them, no matter how hard you preach, people will put the water coolers conversations in the technical sections, the Mod's policing effort will just go up.

Are you trying to free up space?    How about purging The Swamp's back end in these sections?
Do really need to keep that 14 y/o copy of the opinions of some of the more infamous Swamp members as they discussed the merits of some decision made by President Bush?  :sleezy:

Considering everyone else in the country talks about decisions of past administrations ALL THE EFFING TIME, I think we should to.   :angel:

I wasn't planning on getting rid of Lagniappe. I was thinking about putting a couple of the more popular posts from News in Lagniappe and getting rid of the News forum.

BTW, space really isn't an issue.

Going to start removing non-code related forums tomorrow. Now would be a good time to speak your mind. :)

Perfect time to have a meltdown in some in some of the Lagniappe threads.
