Any chance those that want to continue this thread could build their own
dist. list and not copy the ccielab@groupstudy.com address? Same way
might be said for lab swap dates?

I would disagree with the generic "cisco@groupstudy.com" being the ONLY
list for "off topic" posts. Clearly, the CCIE discussion we were having
falls under the heading of "CCIE only" and not "Cisco in general."
Nobody going for their CCNP is interested in this thread.

IMNSHO, if we're to get rid of this past discussion, then we should also
be required to get rid of all "LAB SWAP" messages. I guarantee those
piss me off way more than anyone is pissed about the truth of mine. With
every lab swap message, I see another reason not to complain for an
instant about the supposed "backlog situation."

Also, in going over my inbox, there were over two dozen posts that were
off topic. I don't see complaints about the "CCIE Design" question or
others... why not? Is it just because I'm taking an "unpopular" stance?
