i don't see why comments from T.M.A. shouldn't be viewed in a serious context , perhaps academic is a bit high flown a word for what we do , but we wouldn't post on this site if we didn't have at the very least a passing interest the sites discussed . i make no great claims as a relative new comer , but these sites in our landscape are of great importance to me , the very least T.M.A.does is keep an eye on the old stuff.
