Well yes, it was satirical, but one can still question its implications. I have re-read it and I don't think I misunderstood, although perhaps I should have posted a wittier reply. Anyway, it appeared to be ridiculing using the BA forum to give weather/traffic reports from around the world and I was wondering where you draw the line. Would today's emergency closure of the M4 between junction 1 and the M25 intersection be worthy of a thread on here, for instance?
