It is apparently ok per a few long term members as long as it is not political. I actually reported an off topic post http://www.peachparts.com/shopforum/diesel-discussion/389915-gas-hot-water-pilot-light-went-out-what-do.html on gas hot water heater but it is still on diesel discussion so I assume it is ok for now.
