When I sense threads get way too far off-topic or when threads belong in the LEAPSECS list (UTC, timescales, leap seconds) instead of time-nuts, then I send out polite email off-line. /tvb > Considering some people were exiled from this list, told to take their > discussions elsewhere (DST, Emperor's New Timescale, etc.), why is this > mini-eBay type of announcement tolerated? > > I personally have no problems with the once, twice a week offers, just > intrigued by the apparent double standard.
