As I sit here staring bleary-eyed at my monitor hoping things have calmed down and we've reclaimed our Dose (thank you, rintense), I am coming up with an idea. If all these disruptors (Miss Marple called them hijackers, rightfully so) feel so pulled to this thread and compelled to "share" their great knowledge, why don't we take them on in an advisory capacity? They could be consultants to this thread, and whenever we need answers in the following areas, we would have ready and willing assistance:
ethics, legal advice, medical and dental advice, constitutional questions, military considerations, financial questions, and on and on, I'm sure. I KNOW they have contributed in many other areas tonight which I am too tired to remember right now. Let's form an advisory panel consisting of all these helpful FReepers. They can come here every night and join our chat before bedtime! Then if a topic comes up about which we need instant information, they will come to our rescue!
Let's be inclusive, everyone! Let's be more tolerant!
