[can-talk] Censorship

As it is early in the year, and I'm not yet too busy to deal with this little irritation, I'll air it now. So could this please go through for comment by those CAN talk is supposed to serve - us, the subscribers. 

Since Can Talk replaced the AMOL listing I've tried several times to make comments, only to be told by the "gatekeeper" that my comments were not appropriate or should be elsewhere. 

I've always considered this a forum, especially useful for people like me who are isolated from their colleagues and remote from the large centres. Over the years I have really enjoyed the camaraderie we had. But our little chats and comments have now gone. There's little "talk".

I know we are all busy, and no-one appreciates being bombarded by trivia, but really, if the only comments allowed relate to obscure pieces of farm machinery, knitted doilies etc, then it becomes too dry and discouraging of discussion.

What do you think?

regards
