Just in case anyone else is about to post one. Please hang on to it and
wait until the next time afp starts getting a bit tetchy. Like anything
else it's fun in small doses and irritating when it takes over the
newsgroup.
Something like a music, book or film quiz is always useful for
concentrating afpers on something we all love and where the disagreements
can almost always be put down to a matter of taste. It's one of the best
ways of defusing a situation where we are starting to reach impasses
discussing serious subjects. However they take time to put together, and
it would be really handy if a few people had them at the ready for
appropriate moments rather than all posting them as soon as they are done.
Just a thought.

Or, to put it another way, "when you pour oil on troubled waters,
sooner or later you have to stop before people start complaining about
how oily the place is getting lately..." :-)

Nobody's saying anything. We're just giving each other significant glances
and laughing incessantly...
