What do you like, Thumper?

John Elliott just sent us all a newsletter today (1/25/01). It sounds like this site has been very successful in its first 10 months, and deservedly so. You (Thumper) and I have been identified in the newsletter as BB monitors. What type of postings do you, or others, find objectionable? Here are some of my initial suggestions: Vulgar. Slanderous. Unethical. Medical advice (ie, advice that probably should come from a doctor). Drug advice (ie, recommendations to consume something other than aspirin, sports drinks, and power bars). Dangerous advice (ie, recommendations to overtrain). Mean spirited. Rants. Out of date (ie, anything posted prior to a marathon that has now passed). Multiple postings. Too commercial (ie, an attempt to sell a product rather than to recommend a product). Bib sales. Pointless. Maybe we can pare down this list! (Or maybe we need to add to it.) I think the BB makes for some fun reading as long as we stick to marathoning! :-)
