Welcome Pete OS,
Glad you decided to add to our diversity. We have a wide variety of forums for your debating pleasure.
Just a few notes to help you understand our posting process on this board.
When you use the little green reply button at the bottom right of the post you wish to respond to, the poster will receive an email telling them that they have a response. This also helps visitors follow the discussion.
Also the use of quote boxes makes your quotes from other posters or authors more visible. I will add a quote box around the quote from jar in your post. You can use the peek buttom at the bottom right of your post to view how it was done using the dBCodes located at the left of your screen when in reply or edit mode.
As members, we are guests on this board and as guests we are asked to put forth our best behavior. Please read the
Forum Guidelines carefully and understand the wishes of our host. Abide by the Forum Guidelines and you will be a welcome addition.
In the purple signature box below, you'll find some links that will help make your journey here pleasant.
Please direct any questions or comments you may have to the Moderation Thread.
Again, welcome and fruitful debating.
