I like to think of this forum as a "think tank" or "incubator" for new ideas and concepts. Almost all conversations seem to kindle and extinguish themselves appropriatley so there is no rampant beating of dead horses.

There is also no sniping, flaming, or baiting which is a nice change from other forums I used to go to.

Finally, there is a nice sense of internationalism here so we get to look at things from a global perspective.
