my purpose for frequenting the BBS these days is the pure gold comedy. it is hilarious to watch people sitting at their computers going off on other people sitting at computers. it's great, seeing those individuals with a hair trigger just losing it over nothing more than being proven wrong
at that point the personal attacks begin, which, by the way, is a proven SURE way to get the other guy to see it your way.
oh yeah, and lots of guys know lots of stuff about airplanes, which holds it's own brand of awesomeness
