Well said Jacques. I feel exactly the same about the political discussions. It is alright stating that we have a delete key but why should I waste my money and time in downloading mail which has absolutely nothing to do with Oracle when this is supposed to be regulatd and moderated site.
 
Thanks
 
John

Subject: could we please stop the political discussions?

I enjoy talking public affairs as much as the next person, but not on this list! The reason I joined the mailing list is to learn about Oracle features, not to receive e-mail after e-mail either praising the benefits of capitalism and decrying socialism or to read manifestoes promulgating liberal policies.
 
I know I can just as easily hit the "delete" key, but when approx. 15% (my rough estimate) of the messages on the list are from people trying to promote their political agenda, I start to get weary of the issue.
 
If anyone is interested in some internet message boards where they can discuss politics, please e-mail me privately and I can point you in the right direction.
