I guess it's the spirit of the age. Our elite politicians have lost

then, naturally, overreact. The rest of the chain of causation is left

 But not a reader here, because you and your ilks' political missives
have fsck-all to do with Linux.

   I've mentioned this.
   The Bit-Slice topic was kinda an attempt to split

   Alas some of these 'other topics' ARE compelling

   SOME has to do with the current US elections and
   world affairs. If that all calms down so will the
   threads. There's plenty to know/do with Linux/Unix
   so there OUGHT to be material.
   The only good thing ... some of these 'alternate'
   topics seem to have revealed unrealized common
   interests and compatibility between people who
   normally just sniped at each other over trivia.
   So, it's not ALL bad.
