A plea or a gripe-depends where you are

This is a plea which may well sound inconsequential or not worth bothering about and may well bring down the wrath of God on my head but..........

To everyone who designs/makes-up/is responsible for Posters

Please. Please PLEASE include the year of production in your designs.

Now this may sound obvious/trite/not worth bothering about BUT I do assure you that in time to come when some poor soul is trying to make sense of the archives (which are usually in a mess when some brave person decides to get them in some kind of order) it saves much frustration and hair-pulling out.

And this is where I get myself into more trouble- the design is not as important as the basic information-WHAT-WHERE-WHEN-HOW MUCH-WHERE DO I GET TICKETS

OK off my soap-box

You just said you don't agree that a poster has a primary function, as defined by Craig, but then you said "Sure that is its prime and obvious function". Craig just said he agreed with you. You're arguing for the sake of arguing, and not listening to what they have said. Why does everything have to be an either/or argument here? There are such situations as two pieces of information being correct.
