[Mini] Non mini related 'Mini Related' post

[Andy Hayward]

Hi John,
            Please could you explain in what way you feel the following 
'Mini Related' post you sent to both mini lists, is related to the mini?
I have received 8 posts so far that are talking about carbs that were 
never fitted to a mini, and about a car that is not related to a mini.

If any other listers sent such a post they would be at least asked to 
have the discussion off list.

As holder of the whip, I would expect you to follow procedure and title 
a post correctly, and be relevant to the list.

Sorry if this sounds pompous, my expensive graphics card burned out last 
night :(
