Well, if the same thing happens here, I mean, if Basia feels embarassed with this list and wants to find someone to blame, she can pull my both ears.... :-), so we don't have to shut this forum down and Basia won't have difficulties in finding the right person to blame (of course, it will save your ears too....:-)...). Luckily, she doesn't, so I can keep my ears safe. About off topic topics, I myself never feel disturbed since I can accept and learn to appreciate diversity. If I don't like it, just delete it, but mostly, I read it before delete it because sometimes I can learn from it or at least it can enriches my knowledge. Of course, if possible, I will find other sources to confirm the info inside, whether it's true or not, so I can decide to keep it in my mind or just forget it. However, for some cases like spams or junk mails, I simply delete them all. This topic of off topic topics has appeared many times and we all agree that if we want to say something off topic, we should write "Off Topic" or "OT" in the subject so it will make it easier for us to decide whether or not we will read it - and I see that Barry has written it. After all, diversity make the world so colorful and beautiful, isn't it? If you don't believe me, let's take simple examples. What would happen if people in the world are all only men or only women? Would we ever been born? Or what would happen if we eat the exactly same kind of food in our lifetime? We'll get malnutrition and serious diseases, wouldn't we? Or what would happen if Basia didn't dare to be different? Would we appreciate her as one of the excellent singers in the world? OK, whatever your comments are, I learn to appreciate them. Everybody has the right to say his/her mind but let's not forget that everybody should obey the rules. Well, I apologize if my idea doesn't suit your hearts and I understand if you disagree with it. I also apologize if my words mean something different in your interpretations due to my limitations in English. Czesc, Desianto F. W. =================================== Amy ODonnell wrote: Okay, ENOUGH. Knock it off. Listen very carefully: I was on Bobby Caldwell's website for a long time, and one day the forum was pulled. I met a lot of nice folks there, but suddenly the forum went away. A comment from the webmaster in an email was that the forum was considered "an embarassment" to Mr. Caldwell by his management. Why, we don't know, nobody made any remarks like the ones here, we were chatting away and enjoying it. Mostly about his limited concert appearances, but sometimes about other stuff too. But now it's gone. While I realize this is a privately run forum, we do NOT want to run afoul of any rules or run the risk of embarassing ourselves, Basia, or anyone else. So please, knock it off.
