How you use the rubber chicken has a LOT to do with how well your calls are accepted.

While I value this forum as a tool to gain knowledge, many of the inside jokes I do not get...
What does Steve Wellmer have to do with my question?

He's tall, and seemingly everywhere (one might say "ubiquitous", but that would make Dan get out his dictionary.)

Mods... it seems that one of our more valuable contributors is having some on-going anger issues leading him to engage in insult, slander and the politics of personal destruction. Might you have a word with him?

And while you're at it tell Snaqwells to knock it off too.

They'll only honor such requests if you're an "esteemed" member. I'm betting nobody's going to act on your request.

Is that only "full-on" esteemed? Or could "lightly" esteemed members expect to be heard as well?

The Bangor Auditorium in the background is where the Eastern Maine HS tournaments are held. I played there back in the mid 70s. And the guy out front, a really big guy, was there then. He did not need a whistle.
