Yes Ron you pretty well hit the nail on the head there.
To be fair it could also be said that corfidians who do not bother to read and/or post on theNewsgroup are similarly elitist , but then those who prefer corfid are well aware that it is at the moment and for some time the vastly more vibrant,active and entertaining place to keep track of, and therefore have every right to feel smug and elitist in turn. Nevertheless if you do read nothing else on the Newsgroup today I insist that everybody should make the effort to read Tim Quinn's three part posting to his threads entitled:-
"An unforgettable night at Uptown Theater" (Kansas City) I and II and his latest (part III) posted early today is simply wonderful
It is at:-

There now that I have "spoon fed" everbody nobody has any excuse for not reading it!!
