Hi,
I notice that several people have asked, both obliquely and directly, that
the discussion on various hot spices (i.e. chili) be dropped. And, yet,
not one mention by anyone of wanting the just-as-off-topic discussion of
aircraft (and other) ammunition dropped.
Interesting!
You're right, I too kinda noticed that...
Now, as I more or less started the aircraft/ammunition threads, I apologise
for it having gone so much OT. It actually started as an off-list message
exchange between Gary Edwards, Chris Barker and myself, but then I read some
two or three more replies about it on-list and decided to keep the list in
the loop on a couple of messages about the
rounds/bullets/projectiles/casings/etc I have at home so I could
successfully identify them with the help of others. Partially this worked,
so I'm grateful to everyone who helped me out a bit.
In a way, something slightly on topic also came out of it, as there is now a
page with ammo pictures taken with OM gear ;) And soon I will add some
pictures of the artillery shells that were requested by Jerry (I will let
you know when they're there). :)
Then, as a fellow chocoholic and semi-hothead, I was very much inclined to
jump on the chocolate/chili threads as well, but decided not to do so
because of the sheer volume of on list ammunition messages which were more
or less started by me.
Finally, I apologise for having started the ammunition thread, and suggest
we honour the request of the list members to take the
ammunition/chocolate/chili threads off list from now on.
Cheers!
Olafo
