It works just fine.
So what if there is occasional digression.
A little digression is often interesting ... (up to a point).
As long as "Off Topics" are plainly marked "OT," let it be.
As JD (and others) noted, we all have a delete key and the
ability to filter topics or individuals if/as desired.
Also, a polite private note is usually a much better remedy
than public thrashing over perceived offenses.
Thank y'all for this great PLUG community.
