Here we go again! The last one of these debates has not long ago ended and things returned to almost normal (as normal as things can get around here *BG*). Just as Liland asks above, do you speak of only one subject whenever you get together with friends? If that is the case I suggest expanding your horizons! The folks here at Mudcat are a multinational, diversified group and have interests in more than one area. I myself have learned a lot about more than music here over the years. I would suggest to Doug Chadwick, (not maliciously mind you) that if he would have a forum dedicated to only one subject he might look into a moderated news group. Otherwise, Doug, loosen up the collar, kick off the shoes and enjoy the many different facets available on the diamond that is the Mudcat!
