Digress means to move away from the subject at hand - it does not suggest that the topic moved to is unimportant, simply that it is not topical.

To get back to the point on hand, I would support MrC's suggestion. It seems that once any forum reaches a certain size there needs to be a general topic area not related to the actual subject matter, a sign of maturity! -- radish ------------------------------------------------------------------------ radish's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=77 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=18018 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
