Since the changes in my life in the past few years, actual wrenching on Cubs has taken a sharp downturn. This probably has reflected in the types of posts I have added to the main page being of a more general nature, sometimes using analogies that come from other mechanical fields (automotive, motorsports, small engine repair etc.) to help someone think out a problem. I still like to help, and I hope that isn't part of the off topic issue.
I do think that Charlie should let us try to self-police this issue, at the same time we need to make sure we aren't setting ourselves up as the "Internet Police". There is a fine line, usually involving not only pointing out the error, but helping guide the miscreant to the best place for their post.
A final thought here, don't change things Charlie, this forum is like my home or like my favorite pair of old shoes. I can be gone for a week or a month, come back and it still feels like home. Also - these issues seem to be coming more frequent.... I am concerned, as I suspect many are, that we've finally burned 'ol Digger out. Let us know if there is any way to help or what we should be thinking about doing if we want to keep the forum alive..
