what is that ruckus all about?<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>OK Arne, I live approximately 50.5 miles from my parents' house by road, slightly less as the crow flies. How about you? Maybe we should all discuss the distance we live from our parents' houses, if you're so sure this sort of information is of interest to the list. Perhaps I should tell the list about my sex life too, and which friends I speak to about which issues.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Or alternatively perhaps we should encourage that sort of discussion to happen off-list, since it's off-topic. I'm not trying to silence Brolin, just asking him to consider his choice of forum more considerately. Doing so will likely be to his benefit in the long run, anyhow, since in an appropriate forum, his personal progress updates and requests for personal advice would be generally welcomed, not just "tolerated". That's likely to lead to less tense interaction on both sides.</div>
