Joker, no crusade at all, and I do think the RT thread is excellent. It would appear to be full of very warm hearted individuals with a common love of a certain crossword. They chat to each other, encourage each other through difficulties and I think it is a superb thread. Trevor, if it would be possible to keep the gossipy stuff on to one thread, I would like that, but I do think that it is impossible, the way the site is run at the moment, unfortunately.
