Hallo Hartmut,

well, now. "banning immediately" is surely exaggerated.

Off-topic threads are not a problem, but thread hijacking and spreading
fear, uncertainty and doubt is; especially if the rant spreads over many
pages and if there's plenty of main-stream media coverage and there are
many better suited fori (forums) to discuss the issue at hand: Write a
blog and send us a link. Or write a song about the issue and we're back
in business ;-)

There's > 2500 subscribers to this list and it's not only a waste of
resources but may just drive away some of them.

just my two cents,
robin
