I was getting freaked out by the overt discussion of repro too, especially since we know that journalists sometimes use that thread as a source.
Do you know what else has blood in it? Blood.

Bureaucracy 2: Like Sartre, Only Longer
A thread to discuss naming threads, board policy, new thread suggestions, and anything else that has to do with board administration and maintenance. Guaranteed to include lively debate and polls. Natter discouraged, but not deleted.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
David, don't have it narrowed down at least for a run off?
The top three are clearly: Sode, Lurkers and Solution.
After that there's no consensus. I think we'll need a vote if somebody wants to set up a Mr. Poll.

Voting results posted. No politics thread, but enough of a desire that some accommodation for political discussion seems reasonable.

Thanks, Sean!
See, I like the consensus, but I also like the clarity that voting brings.

My ploy was perhaps less than subtle.

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.
