Re: Wile E Coyote & The Lynx
I have found that it is not possible to link to posts on the other board. Apparently, the protocols prohibit it. Fine. But it should be noted that I attempted to create a link to a thread on the other board not because I was trying to be a smart a$$ but because there was a relevant discussion that merited participation. Over the years of posting here, I have made every attempt to live within the TOS, while linking to newsworthy items whether they were on Radio & Records or The New York Times.It's particularly frustrating, this turf war that's going on. I often wonder what Doug Fleming, one of the original creators, would have thought about all this nonsense. I have nothing but respect for his efforts and empathy for his parents, but I wish the claims between the entities could have been settled so that it did not result in two distinctly different boards. Now we have two different communities and a degree of polarization that does not benefit either community, its posters or readers. Historically, it calls to mind the division of states, e.g., East & West Berlin, North & South Korea. Extreme examples perhaps, but you get the idea. It just shouldn't have to be this way. Oh, one more thing. Although I have acclimated myself to the new formatics and sign-on ritual, I still think the "old board" was better laid out and made for easier posting and participation. [/Mike]
