RE: [OT] Good Website

["Mark Harrison" <Mark.Harrison@xxxxxxx>]

Oh good - more bickering about the number of Off-Topic emails. Last time
someone posted this we ended up with over 100 emails about whether things
were on or off topic...


There are two things you may find useful:

1: The letters [OT] in a subject line denote that a message is
Off-Topic

2: It is not a requirement of group membership that you read EVERY message.
Please feel free to delete/ignore those that are off-topic.

We are supposed to be talking about home automation on this group or at
least that's what I thought when I subscribed about 2 years ago.
Someone
e-mailed last week asking if their banks website was down, did they
realy have to e-mail 1000 people to ask ?

Can we have some on topic e-mails ?

I must just be easily impressed then.
Do you have a link to what you would consider is a good site as I would
like to start putting one together.

Thanks
