No amount of stupidity can ever discourage the inflicting of further bouts of it, Amos, if my observation of the behaviour of stupid young men is any indication. Only age and experience tend to temper it after awhile. I think the forum has changed probably because its membership (and visitors) keeps expanding and its sense of community gets watered down in the process. Kind of like what happens when you turn 15 or 20 unique local stores into a WalMart and McDonald's complex...
