being a relative newbie, I sometimes wonder what FR is like when there is no election to talk about. I wish I had discovered you guys years ago.
It's the "Never Ending Story".
Stick around.
It's different. In some ways, it's more fun. Around election time, people get edgy and nervous, and people tend to overreact to the slightest bit of bad news.
Anyway, stick around and find out for yourself!
