This is still a great group. I donīt have any filters but still get
lots of help and good information here, thanks to the very experienced
members. It is mainly just a matter of ignoring the noise.

Re: This group is out of control
Has anyone thought of starting a moderated BB via vBulletin and having us
main members a part of it so that we can keep the spamming down to a
minimum? I would definitely join if it were the same people as on here and
would vote for Mike as one of the moderators. Just an idea ...
