good bad or indifferent, this forum was built by a group of us that pride ourselves on a few things, the hijack being part of that. Like it or not it is TRF and we love it. :-)

I must admit that I am a highjacker myself, but it is only an expression of how much I love TRF!

I mean: The threadstarter might want to be serious and want some straight forward replies, and I always try do reply accordingly, but after that a bit of "small talk" adds to the special atmosphere that there is here, and that I love about TRF!

I think it's good that we're so bad because when it's bad it means we've been good and that could get pretty boring.

Ah yes, the double-barrelled question - a big no-no in any survey design.

HIJACK!

Seriously, within limits, hijacking's one of the key fun characteristics in this forum. So long as the threadstarter's issue is addressed, I really have no problem with hijacking.

So...when you open a can of beans and eat them, do you think about the eventual consequences?!?
