Well, I read in the Ubuntu list itself that if you wanted to post 
non-tech and general topic posts then Sounder was the place to go. 
Sounder was the "offtopic" list to go to if you don't have tech matters 
to talk about.

Well, how wrong was I by taking that post I read to be meaningful!

I have no general "agenda".
