Umm, actually, I also changed the tag in my 'Bitscope' post from [PIC] to
[OT].
And yet, I still got sent this:

Considering myself a reasonably good member of the internet society, I'm
rather offended to have received this, especially since I was one of few who
actually adhered to the list rules.
Still, it's an honest mistake. I'm eternally grateful for this invaluable
resource the admins provide for us.

Maybe it was too OT for [OT]? :o)
