I believe that this thread started in response to a question that I asked. And of course I got a philosophical and rather long amswer from my good friend Grandpa Doug. After Doug and I went a few rounds, others joined in the fun and things went on from there.
Besides the fun and the ribbing, there has been a lot of information and suggestions exchanged between members, and of course their viewpoints. All with the end result that I hope all of us have learned something a little new from the discourse.
Sometimes more can be learned from conversation than from a straight and sanitized technical discussion. From my point of view, both are necessary and both valuable.
I find that the varied subject matter and the various ways that it is presented make for interest and anticipation of what might come next.
Let's not change anything -- I'm having too good of a time.
Regards to all,
