I just pm Pete or email him when I need/want to talk to him. He really works hard to keep out of trouble over there, and since I have his email, I just stay the hell out of there! I got warned once from a pm because I said "the other place" and that was it for me. Hell, I didn't even mean here, we were talking about snow related stuff! But I agree, it will do no good to stir the bees, but I see why one would think it would be ok to post about a get together...it's NOT an oilburners.net get together, but I'm sure it was taken as such. I still remember Mel posting about OMB over there and getting spanked for double posting. If they are going to spank the guy with double or more the posts of anyone else for letting us all know about a friend with health issues, I don't need to be associated with them anyway.
Haven't been there for probably two years and have no plans to go get beaten up there.
