If you go there, you will find a variety of interesting topics, including one on y2K prognostication. I seek intelligently-written and thoughtful opinions in addition to good jokes.

Jon, you referd to your forum as a variety of interesting topics?

Yeah right... I was just wishing there would be someone to come along and create a forum where I could vent my feelings of "The Future of Feminism","Music, whats cool and what sucks", and "Cats".

get a life Jon and don't use bandwidth to advertise your rip off of the Y2000 format.

Your flame was not necessary. All I want to do is share ideas and insights. The forum's intros are written in a colloquial style so as not to be offputting or pretentious. Perhaps I am crazy, but I happen to like to listen to a variety of opinions, including those that are different from my own because I just might learn something.

By the way, I have a life. It's doing just fine. How would I like it if I yelled "get a life!!" at you?

Furthermore, I hardly think that this is a waste of bandwidth. There is plenty to go around. If you disagree strongly enough with this posting, please take it up with the administrator of this forum and have it deleted. Then you will have satisfied your urge for a daily power trip. If I am correct in my supposition that you find it gratifying to insult others, I truly pity you. For it is YOU who needs to "get a life."

Go in peace.

Lancealot, you failed to mention that you, the participant, are free to come up with your own "threads." In fact I encourage you to.
