The position of the Military Aircrew forum on the main page menu is derived from a software algorithm that uses the following variables;

1. Inappropriate use of "there, their, and they're".
2. Juxtaposition between rambling anecdotes and a salient point.
3. Calculation of total "there I was with nothing on the clock..." introductions.
4. Calculation of total "the trouble with the youth of today..." introductions.
5. Inappropriate use of the apostrophe of possesion/pluralisation.
6. Calculation of total "why did they cancel the Harrier..." tomes.
7. Any reference to the Fleet Air Arm and Aircraft Carriers.
8. Any reference to an individual's ability to wear a hat - or not.

Each instance of the above drops the forum position by one line.
Good post, and very credible- but none of the above, TI. It is out of kindness: you see, the scrolling distance between Mil and JB in the Forum Jump menu has been significantly reduced. Given the age of most posters here, and the correllation with arthritis, it was felt the best thing to ease those stiff little fingers. Thank you Mods.
