I dunno, maybe we can glean some good kernels from the chaff that will surely come. I reckon you may as well make the new forum. If it doesn't work like we hope, we can just pull the plug, like Doug says.

Time to get the old "Foxfire" series out and start reading again.

Ain't it notable how, as applied technology advances our civilization, it becomes increasingly precarious? The philosophy seems to go contradictory to the reality, kinda like computers were supposed to make our lives and our jobs easier, right? It sure seemed a lot easier to me to work on that old 65 ford fairlane and give it a good tune up and just drive it down the road with the AM radio set to one of my five favorite channels. Now it costs me $500 to take my POS Kia in and get it "serviced" with all those diagnostics, and then try to drive down the road punching buttons trying to find something other than Rap or Hip Hop on the daughter's CD collection playing in the trunk or on the radio, or the satellite radio, or the climate control and then accidentally push that ^(^%$##@ On-Star button again and have to pay another $15 for the false alarm!!!

Yep, we could use two steps back here pretty soon I reckon.
