For the sake of those people who may simply not appreciate why I started this topic - this discussion forum (Scrapbook), and this one ONLY, I shall explain.
The reason for this area was to allow people to post things that were off-topic in other areas - and that means that any good natured and inoffensive subject of conversation (including photos if wanted) is pefectly allowed here.
For those mineralogical purists, think of it as a garbage trap, where everything non-mineralogical can be kept in one simple place for you to ignore, improving the quality of the other discussion areas.
For the rest of us, feel free to enjoy the discussions in here, whatever they end up being about!
And, if you post a mineralogically related discussion in here (which you are welcome to do) don't be too surprised if it gets sidetracked and veers off into areas you weren't expecting - that is the nature of the scrapbook forum.
