I'm not nearly as long on here as some that were mentioned, but I can say while I still read often, I don't post as much. That might be what others are doing. Unless you have a specific problem you can't get a handle on, it gets pretty old posting on some of the same questions time after time. I think some of this stuff should be made a sticky to keep down the retread traffic. Then there's other times when the same question comes up and I put my .02 in just to make the point again. I guess I do it to see what other responses are. It's all pretty silly some times. I don't enjoy the pie fights like I used to, though. I certainly HAVE learned a lot on this board over the years.
But this whole thing about grease the ball or not.....C'mon! Grease it already! :)
