Next thing you’ll be telling us is that AM radio should be eliminated from cars.

I totally agree with others - If you don't want to see this section, don't look at it...

I'll go for that one, no AM only radios in new cars. They should all come with AM/FM/SW and a combined CB all band Ham radio transceiver and a lifetime license for all those two way bands as part of the price of the new car. And a free mic.

How about eliminating the general non-photography chit chat forum? It has absolutely no relevance here. Th3 dialogue spirals into nonsense pretty fast. Me, I’m looking for photography insights here.
So what if some posts in this section are not centered on great "glass" or "the only brand that matters"? So what if some posts come from the misinformed and the poorly educated? Because they come from fellow photographers, they get a friendlier audience and enjoy more respect than in many other places. If Israeli violinists and Iranian cellists can get along like neighbors in the same orchestra, why not let photographers share their thoughts about other parts of their lives in a civil forum where they share at least one passion?

I would suggest that those wanting things eliminated mind their own business and don't try to control what others see or want to see.

Chit Chat is fundamentally Section 1 part b of the First Amendment. Have you read that lately? The nude section is part c.
The first amendment guarantees free speech but only where government regulation is concerned. A private company or group (e.g. UHH) can restrict speech.

The Chit Chat Items are just fine as they are.. My main interest is Flying and Airplanes, But I still look at the Flowers, Bum le bees, Travel, and several other Items and enjoy them for the art involved.. I admire the Eye that sees the beauty in each of the pictures, and I laugh with the folks that send the funny stories and cartoons along on the UHH form.. You critics who just want to see pictures,,, BUY A BOOK

The effect is that it reinforces the 'importance' of this section to the members.
