Don't get the wrong idea. We spar around the edges of politics. Sometimes we get it wrong. I'd spectat for a bit before diving into the shadowy darkness of the site. Blends? Pipes? Movies? Cycles? Fishing all appear quite mundane and safe. HAH! We are capable of running any thread off the tracks in a matter of minutes. The mods can sometimes save us from ourselves. Not always though... as the list of the, sometimes dear, departed grows yearly.
Look around and you'll find the pile of buttons from the tunics of those whose filters deserted them. The actual drumming out rites are mysterious, known only to our esteemed leader and his minions... er mods, I meant mods!

"I started smoking a pipe in 1961, when I was a boy of thirteen. I've smoked a pipe off and on since then and I have observed the anti-smoking movement all these 66 years."
Well how strange...I was born in 1961 and I can assure you I am not aged 66!
Regards,
Jay.

Odd necro thread, Jay. Just to point out what you think is an error?
It is not. He was born in 1948. He started smoking the year you say you were born, when he was 13. That is, if my arithmetic is correct.

Sheesh. The guy typed 66 instead of 56....
By golly, can't let that one slip by, eh?

Actually I'm 55...56 come Christmas :wink:
"By golly, can't [we] let that one slip by, eh?"
But of course...though I was merely correcting an error which John then compounded.
Regards,
Jay.

Not at all. He did not say he was smoking for those 66 years. Double sheesh.
The whole point is: why point out such, error or not?
