Really? A separate forum for Macros???? Would that be TWO forums — one for KX3 macros and one for K3 macros? Or separate forums for the KX# used only for a home station and a KX# used while backpacking?
It makes me wonder how people read a newspaper. Did they write letters to the editor complaining about all of the OT stories they weren’t interested in and how turning so many pages (especially on Sunday) that made their life more difficult? Was there a customized option delivered to their door that contained only the very specific news items or points of view they wanted to read? Did they complain about ink and paper usage for stuff that wasn’t personally interesting?
In the end I suppose it doesn’t really matter whether it’s a reflector or a forum, although my personal preference is the former. I’d probably read the whole thing anyway (or all 15 of them?), since one never knows when there might be a tidbit of actual good information that doesn’t have their personal navel in the subject line.
The whole argument about it is kind of silly, egregiously self-centered, and just adds to the queue length … last time I had that kind of tunnel vision I was pulling high G’s in a jet trainer :-)
