There's more than one way to skin a cat. And I happen to know that's factually true.

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.

And, it's easier on counting the votes - if they're received during day X, they're good, if not . . . .

BTW, what time zone?

Board time. EST.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

When we talk time, we mean Board Time, which is Eastern US time.

Edit: Not that I don't love sharing this number with you, Sean, but I'm pedantically compelled to point out that sometimes it's EDT.

That's what I thought, just wanted to make sure.

Allyson, I just caught your post in the Light Bulb thread, and I have to say, I thought it was really offensive. Even if it was a joke, which I don't think it was, I really take issue with the idea that there's some time limit before you can have opinions around here, and I couldn't let it go.

Frankly, I agree with Jesse. I was stunned when I saw it.

BTW, if you ban me from posting, then the terrorists have won. Or something like that.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

?!?!

Why would we ban you?

No particular reason.

If you want to know why I said it, look at Allyson's post in the Lightbulb thread, and then slippery slope it.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Gandalfe, if that (edit: the earlier comment) was a joke, it wasn't very funny.

Allyson, your comments were way out of line.

Please, everybody chill! There are people getting bombs dropped on them, and y'all are getting upset over a posting board?
