It's really none of my bidness, but...who the heck are the "gang of 12" anyhow?

And Ed, it's been my experience that this place is like most others- you get what you give. You kid, people kid back... you cry, people cry with you... treat em with respect, you get respect... act like an asshole, get treated like one. If anything, people will cut you a little more slack around here than in most other places in the real world. Your idea has some merit, and perhaps Max, Bert and their helpers will incorporate some of it. Welcome.
