My $.02. I agree with Tony whole-heartedly. The <OT> designation is
just fine for most of the topics that are not Pure Linux. When we get
into flame wars, it's best to ship those off to General.

And, I for one, could do without the snide remarks about Tony's
contributions to the list. It's easy to slip up and forget the <OT>
from time to time. On my browser at least, the X button works just
fine if something is too far <OT>.
