[Bell Historians] Stop wasting our time

[Paul Cattermole]

Sorry to disagree with resident and eminent bell historians on this
website, but the banter really annoys me too. I am old and grumpy, and
thought I was joining a serious discussion group. Too many "in" jokes,
I'm afraid. Much of the "real" stuff is fascinating and very
worthwhile, but to open up the computer and find perhaps a dozen
messages which add nothing to serious enquiry is frustrating.

Look, this is not the first time you've grumbled about content. Nobody
else
seems to mind the occasional piece of banter. If you don't like it then
nobody is forcing you to read it, now are they?
