I know where it will lead... to a 120 post long thread with 12 participants. 6 of which think their ideas are great but don't have the resources to implement any of them. The other 6 thinks the ideas are bad and have decided that convincing the other 6 through sheer superhuman retorical prowess is a constructive way to earn brownie points with the 5 people in the thread that agree with them. No wait 13 particpants. The 13th participant who hates everyone on general principle and only gets involved in the discussion because the themes being badly expressed by the other 12 people are too important to not have something worthwhile come out of the discussion. -jef"Generally good ideas are generally very bad discussions.
