I see a couple of posts were closed down for political content.

I'm as guilty as anyone here, if not more. It just sucks to see new-found freedoms in danger of disappearing.
Probably a good thing though
I would hate to see anything ruin the vibe of this site

I was surprised that they let them go on for as long as they did. ( not that I don't agree with them and that the majority of people here do as well) but from Dans point of view, if someone finds this site, and feels alienated because if political posts, it may cost him buisness. While I don't agree with this, Michael Jordan famously said when asked about politics " Republicans buy shoes too"

Morning Yard. A cold day up here. 20 degrees but the wind chill makes it 6.

Morning Hobbes! Could I trouble you for another measurement? Total length of the TG handle slab and from the middle of the first two rivets to the bottom of the slab.

Morning Jared. I can get that for you but it won't be until lunch time. We aren't allowed to bring knives to work. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

It is not only that
Remember when the regulator TT test results were first allowed to be published.
There was 1 or 2 individuals that had VERY strong opinions on the design and despite repeated warnings to ease up, at least 1 was eventually banned.

It was sad for a number of reasons including
it helped end the whole test team concept
at least 1 long time member was banned
It almost tore apart this forum.

In my opinion this is the best forum on the internet, with a great bunch of guys
If the forum owners and moderators decide to play it safe for want of a better word, in order to keep this site so friendly
I am all for it

You're welcome. What do you have in mind for new slabs?
