Not *ANOTHER* OT thread that's descending into a lot of old-
womanish banter and griping. STFU, or go somewhere appropriate.

To use your very own words:

"IMO to try and control this group by posting stuff like
this is itself an unwelcome abuse."

Oh, bum. You have caught me out. However, I can only say
in mitigation that there's a difference between a FAQ
masquerading as a Charter endorsed by all, and my futile
attempts to prevent uk.d-i-y being submerged beneath a
tide of frightful old tittle-tattle and stuff that's
meaningless from a DIY perspective.

Now I will go off and have a cup of coffee and reflect
upon the economic situation in China and its relevance
to the world of quality cheap tools.
