Amen Jim. I still get phone calls from the archives when I did include my phone number.... Person on other line: I saw on the Tech Assist you sent someone a tip for model so and so...I need to know if that will apply to my model? Sorry, don't have time for this...besides possibly taking business away from fellow shops on this list. Either the customer will repair the TV using Tech Assist archives, and the shop loses business or they blow other stuff out causing headaches to the other shop....this is more likely.

I also used to include my phone number and fax number but that generated unwanted phone calls and faxes. I think it would be nice to know if a post is from a young inexperienced tech or from an old fart like myself so I include "Since 1972" in my sig file. ************************************************** Jim Myers Since 1972 Telrad Electronic Services Co.

The moderators are in a darned if you do and darned if you don't situation when enforcing the guidelines. The members created the rules not the staff, but we are left to try and enforce them.
