Now, Richard, even such a suggestion will make certain people (with reading comprehension problems) think you are trying to keep certain people out of the Cafe. Let's leave the wonderful ideas to our wonderful admins. :)

I'm sure you meant separate Religious forum; I would suggest that there doesn't seem to be a need for it. The new Politics forum can hold discussions of many different political issues. There may be times when things that did not start as political issues may be moved there. Religion has been much less discussed than politics (note the version numbers of the two threads) and threads in the Café rarely devolve into religious discussions. Also, posters in the Politics forum will likely engage in heated arguments, which may be inappropriate in other Café threads.

yep - and it was simply a 'Suggestion' - based on my experience as a MODerator and the 'Religious' FORUM was indeed always a separate entity from the Cafe (as in Social / etc) - and THEY were usually quite 'heated' discussions revolving around very good discourse - even though 'heated' . . . and sooooo,

as i said - a 'Suggestion' AND 'of course' it's left up to ADmin . . .

No, because as usual they have to be routed thru Pappa.

Otherwise there would be concerns over what equipment is or really isn't needed and why one piece wasn't accepted over another.

Sorry for the delay getting here. To an extent if "nobody" wants to start gathering names that take me out of the loop that is fine. Here shortly, I need to help "nobody" define two items that are still needed and the best information that I can give him. It then becomes someones elses task to coordinate that... The good thing is that the average person might be able to afford one or two of the needed items... Some of the other items that were actually required put things out of everyones price range (as it is hardware you get no tax receipt in the US)... As Eric leaked, I sent (partial) money for the case for Bruno, I provided two Fiberchannel cards to connect it to the NAS and paid for the Gigabit Switch (and some extra)... I do have to Note that others "Nameless Individuals" (at their request) provide a very large amount of hardware, Thank You!

Private Conversation with Eric, is that as Seti MultiBeam gets to Seti Main there will be a review and an updated budget and hardware list (but that is sometime away)...

Thank YOU Everyone, for the Help and Consideration that you have given... Seti is still Alive, it is the efforts of "many" who are not public about it.

No, because as usual they have to be routed thru Pappa.

Sorry I can't read that post--the lettering hurts my eyes.

I'll read again when it looks semi-adult-thanks.
