Never forget. As with so much of the internet, we aren't the customers of this forum: we're the product. Our information is Hoovered up, folded, spindled, mutilated, and packaged to be sold to advertisers who are the customers of the business that owns the forum. How else could it be "free"? Sure a business should listen to its customers, but them ain't us. We're the wood-pulp that flows through Randy's forestry products mill.
I still like it here, though.
