If I recall, you were the one to bring up Nazis and are the one posting 
consparicy theories and politics, so not wanting to associate with those 
topics is a little odd. :-)

But seriously now, you compared moving your GW thread into OT to being 
under Nazi rule, and being attacked by terrorists.  That seems to indicate 
you feel the OT tag is some terrible, awful place to send a discussion.  
I won't get into how I feel about being compared to a Nazi or a terrorist 
because I disagree about what tag a subject belongs under!
