Hee.
I like it how it is. Is there an influx of confused newbies who are disillusioned by our discussions of cilantro in their search for the real truth about Angel's hair gel?
But that's just me. I fear change.

Not that I know of, just me not liking it. Then again, I'd change the name of the whole board oif I had my way, so there is that.
I just think that the first place people see should be accurate and the fact is that discussion of those shows is not the focus of the board anymore.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
But it doesn't say we're focused on those discussions, just that the board was dedicated to them. You could think of 'dedicate' as in the usage of dedicating a building or a ship. Established for that purpose.
I mean, we're not always humorous or intelligent or obessive either. Okay, well, yeah, we're probably always obsessive.
But anyway, dunno why I'm engaging you, because I don't particularly intend to change the way you feel about it. Just talkin', I guess. Heh.
