What I don't understand is why Islay gets such a scathing criticism about posting absolute drivel and nonsense 99 per cent of the time. I think almost all of his posts have stuff that is interesting and informative. A lot of his references are official documents and I think it is helpful to read what they say. Often don't agree with the conclusions reached by Islay but that's the nature of a forum.
Your criticisms are helpful in creating discussions so it seems to me the two of you are worthwhile contributors to Dundee Mad.
