OK...this new member searched the forum and learned what MIRT is.

So rather than a canned, polite, ''Welcome-and-thank-you-for-joining-us-and-posting-your-thoughts-but-I-AM-ON-MIRT-which-means-...-and-this-topic-is-inappropriate-we-hope-you-find-something-else-of-interest-perhaps-try-a-topic-that-is-more-recent-or-maybe-try-this-Forum-or-that-Group" message you jump on my case for my first post to this group and to Public Transportation And Smart Growth!

The Terms of Service do not explicitly prohibit use of the word "f_ing" but it adds nothing to your, IMO, inappropriate response. Enjoy the rest of your 90 days....

While I can see the value of retaining the discussion from a historical perspective, can it be closed if it is a "zombie thread"?

Nothing like calling for the cancelling of a show BainsBane Nov 2013 #32

Are you speaking for uhnope? LessLawnFewerCars Nov 2013 #33

I was speaking to you, since you were the last to post in what is otherwise a zombie thread BainsBane Nov 2013 #34

If it is a zombie thread, then why respond? Now you've resurrected it into something else. LessLawnFewerCars Nov 2013 #35

Car worship? Hardly. The show is just a discussion of things that go wrong with cars The Velveteen Ocelot Nov 2013 #41

I love Car Talk! I don't care if they are running old shows. The Velveteen Ocelot Nov 2013 #40
