Folks, Most of us from time to time have involved ourselves in O.T. (off topic) discussions, and from time to time the question arises as to whether this is the place to discuss things other than tractors, which is the primary reason we come to this site in the first place. It seems that what we say here does not go unnoticed by Kim and Co., as they have chosen to feature a particular post and ensuing responsed. It was from one of our younger readers, and his question recieved much response. He must like tractors and the people here or I doubt he would have spilled his guts the way he did. While his post was totally O.T., the fact that this young man thought enough of the people here that he could voice his concern and question says volumns not only about the people here, but the fact that there are reasons beyond what anyone of us can state as to why O.T. topics have value here as well as just talking tractors, tools, equipment, etc. I hope that everyone will take the time to read the article as it is printed in its entirety, and archived, so that whenever one of us are tempted to to wonder why we must allow O.T. discussions, that we will be reminded that we may impact someones life in ways we never dreamed, and that life is more than just tractors. I also hope that Kim will run that post periodically for all to read from time to time. I think that the youngster who posted the question feels the same.
