My sentiments exactly, Graham. I don't know what all the fuss is about. I don't
see any of the trash. This place is fine for me.


I agree too BUT the one thing I truly miss is useful commentary from
ex Met office chaps who live down here not too far from Dorset.

Naturally i do look around usually with my morning first tea but my
personal interest is aroused when the weather becomes more dynamic.
I do prefer one screen where I can spot anything of interest quickly,
thus matching my work where as an overloaded schoolmaster I have to
spot the good from the bad ( et al) from dawn to dusk, at some speed.

I suspect that what I consider the lower echelon of posters will move
away in time. It is really quite scary how much time they have. IIRC
there was a time some 4-5 years ago when someone fairly regularly
posted pages and pages of almost Biblical text: at the time I asked
the poster if he/she was really typing this up for hour after hour.
