One of the things we can all do is set a good example and not start OT
discussions in the first place. Once they are started they take on a
life of their own and keep people hanging around that really should be
elsewhere.



I don't disagree philosophically with what you are saying here, although
I am not offput by OT topics marked OT. But I think the "people who
should be elsewhere" aren't going anywhere so long as being snarly to
others is part of their reason for living.
