>>I will not eat them here or there.....<<


I will not eat them anywhere,

Seriously--I think that a lot of threads that start out as "local or vanity" threads turn into more.
i.e. The sniper threads, the Challenger, the hurricane threads, the western fires, even the World Trade Center attacks. They all sterted as local news and turned into something much more. Threads maybe will have to be moved, but you don't know until they play out.

My wife also pointed this out. Happily there is a simple solution: Instead of spending extra man hours to enforce complete segregation of apparently non-conservative posts, let the more popular of them appear among the "Latest Posts" along with the more popular from News/Activism and all other forums.

Then all of the threads that attrack the greatest amount of Freeper interest -- including those that change to activist threads mid-flow -- will be visible on one page.

Excellent point.

Another reason for the "ALL Latest Posts" page.
