One person who was well intentioned, wanted to share what they thought was a serious problem. Others knew it was a hoax and advised the group accordingly, so now we have a better informed, more knowledgeable group about this hoax. Many learned something from it. So what's the harm? Why is it so heinous to report what one person thought was useful information, when others blatantly tag nearly every one of their messages with their "frogmusic" advertisement? Personally, I'd rather see someone LEARN something from this list, than be peppered with someone's self serving advertisements that have nothing to do with driving. This list has gotten ridiculously oversensitive about what information is posted. Maybe people would post more to this list if they weren't terrified that they were going to be smacked in the head for what they believed was useful information to the group. And now I'm going to clean my pairs harness and groom up my pair, and hitch the pair, and drive the pair to a new pairs vehicle. I'm going to get some current video of the pair because this pair is for sale. I hope this is one of the limited sanctioned weekends we are allowed to mention pairs sale items. If not, please hold this message until we get to one of the permitted weekends, then print it out and read. Let's lighten up on this list, that virus post was well intentioned. Maybe if this list was more friendly to its members, we would have more participants on it, and we would all learn something to enrich our lives in pairs driving. Maybe we would have more discussions, but people are afraid of getting beaned in the head for what they want to share with others.
