The Psychological Dynamics of Message Boards

[finallyprettyokay]

Wow. This answers questions for me. These two forums have been my first board experience, and what an experience it has been.

If I might be a bit constructive, I think we need to be able to talk about things other than the LC here. We need a section of the board to talk about spiritual matters in and of themselves. This is smart, gifted group of people and I'm interested in what you guys think about things without their always being in terms of the LC. For example, I've wanted to start a thread about the nature of faith. But I don't want to discuss it in terms of the LC or with obligatory jabs at the LC. Also, I'd like an area on the board where we can talk about anything. Sports, politics, macrame, anything.

Interesting ideas. Just know -- I have somewhat strong feelings about politics, and those feelings/ideas may be different than a lot of us here. Just from small comments in some posts, I draw that semi-conclusion. If that is where this goes ---

Anyway, thanks for the insight, Igzy. BTW, was it you that was reading The Catcher in the Rye? I think so. How's that going? I love that book. Depressing, but amazing. I've been reading it since I was your niece's age, read it every couple years or so.

Thanks again. OBW, read this and reconsider!! SC, you too.

My niece took her copy home with her so I need to dig ours out of a box somewhere in the garage. Thanks for reminding me. I'm enjoying it.
