Honestly, I don't even want to try splitting this thread -- even though I agree that it should. I agree that it would be a big pain (unless Reggie knows of a painless way to do it). I could try, but I'd have to find all pertinent posts, etc. Maybe someone who is passionate about the issue can post a new thread and quote some of the useful passages here. That would be helpful.
This comment is fascinating because it has nothing to do with what I said. I said that a moderator wasn't needed to start a new thread. You said that this thread is useless. Fine, so start a new thread! You don't need a moderator to do that.
