Off topic kills value of the list and group

Suppose I had never been to a Krispy Kreme Donut shop.  Others told me
how wonderful it is, with the fryer and smells, etc.  So with great
anticipation I walk in the door...and find they are frying battered
halibut.  But they are frying a about 1 donut for every 30 slabs of
fish meat.  Should I be expected to ignore (delete) the fish and enjoy
the few donuts?

Just asking people to use the delete key and setup filters is NOT the
answer.  The list and PLUG will loose it's identity and purpose, lost
in the politics, religion and whatever else.

(I think my metaphor smells.  ;^)
