So what about the "grey" areas? Off the top of my head, these could be ...
New item (how to/which buttons are which)
Safety aspect of purchased product(s) used by VI's
Where to shop and/or problems with shop items ...
and my brain is ceasing now and, apologies, I notice I now have others
from Access-UK, not yet read! <Smiles>

Hi Ed,
Here is where it becomes difficult and I agree with your post. What
is the
definition of access tech? I agree with you and we all, myself
included,
have been guilty of talking about gadgets, trueCall in my case and
other
gadgets. So the guidelines do either need to be enforced, or
re-written.
Anyone care to define access tech in this context?
All the best
Steve

Hi George,
I don't dispute that that's what the list guidelines say, and on a
strict
interpretation of those guidelines, coffee machines are prima facie
off
topic.
However, this constitute peripatetic enforcement. I went onto the
April
archive page of Access-UK to see how many messages had been posted
about the
Goodmans DAB Digital Radio. To be honest, I gave up counting, but
there
were a lot more than there have been on the coffee machine thread and
I
didn't see one from you about the thread being off topic. BTW if
anyone
wants to count, the link is
https://www.freelists.org/archive/access-uk/04-2016?threads=1.
If the speed limit is 70 miles an hour, you have to enforce it for
all cars
you see doing 90, not just yellow ones. Or if you prefer, if the
referee
books a player for a tackle from behind after 5 minutes, he has to
book
everyone else who does the same thing in the rest of the game.
Cheers,
Ed

I'm hoping this plain text message is visible to all members.to
The first part of the list's Welcome message says:
"1. This list is primarily set up for UK users of Access Technology
discuss any technical problems which are related to either the
hardware or
software they are using."
Note the words "users of Access Technology"."Access
I'm sorry, but coffee machines, guide dogs and such like are not
Technology".
There are others lists to discuss such topics, and if thiscontinues, it
will be necessary to take a harder line here.
