Hi all,

No, I have not gone crazy, or at least crazier than I already am. Neal and Neon, feel free to delete them, brig me, yell at me or remove my 'best of' badge or my moderator status if you feel it necessary; I won't get angry and storm off, leaving SubSim forever in a huff, nor will I say anything nasty about either of you. Any of those consequences would be well-deserved, and I did what I did knowing well that they would be the likely result. I know that this was topic spamming, and that is very wrong. My little act of civil disobedience was simply to illustrate the fallacy of the claim that 'different aspects' of the same topic are not the same topic. It is still topic spam, and if 4 threads were that annoying, please imagine the frustration that many, myself included, feel over 187 threads about the same issue. If it allows for members to stop and think before doing this sort of thing, then it would make GT a much nicer place to be, and would be well worth any consequences that I am likely about to suffer.
