Pat, there is a fundamental difference between that place and PL. Here, people are respected for what they know, and even more for the knowledge that they share. Over there, it's all about who's best buddies with whom... You can be the biggest idiot alive, and yet if you win the popularity contest you are a god.
You've spent a lifetime in the industry and have collected a great deal of information, which you have willingly shared with the group here. That makes you a valuable contributor to the forum, and you will always be respected and appreciated for that. Do you really think you'd ever be respected by the bunch of kids they've got over at LPF? Seriously?
Gus and Mophead are right... It's high school all over again. Nothing but a bunch of 12 year old, snot-nosed, myspace-dwelling *PUNKS* that wouldn't recognize a CVL if it fell on their heads. But they run the place now, and people in my generation (and yours) are actively excluded.
Eh - not to worry though.... It's their loss in my opinion. They're missing out, because they can't see beyond their little pointer jocky world. And if they don't want to listen to someone with valuable experience about what else is out there besides hopped-up pointers, then screw 'em! You know you'll always have an audience here.

Hey, nothing against high school kids! Can I help it that I am only 16, have hay fever (Google translation???), """""regurarly""""" (ahum) visit my Netlog account and have long hair? And what is that big thing falling from the sky, it's emitting a huge bright green ray! And now the colour changes to yellow! Must be the Fairy Godmother!!!!!
