I notice that a lot of people start threads in the form of a question, when they don't really want an answer!! Why start a question thread when your mind is already made up? Wouldn't it be better to say..."this is how I feel, how many agree with me?"

sounds like a good question to me and it's
always interesting to read others thoughts
for and against, if they are allowed

this is an international forum with many diverse
characters. a difference of opinion can stimulate
good exchanges but put downs are not really
acceptable and just cause animosity.

I would think most people enjoy a good debate.

I rarely, if not never, answer to those kind of threads, as most of the time, they are either abandoned by the op, or otherwise end up degenerating!!

always good to see opinions from a wide variety
of people. When a thread is just an exchange
between 2 people who go on and on polishing
up egos it's a little boring

Very boring, for the rest of us!
IM is a good thing for those conversations,
or the phone, or maybe even over a cup of coffee at the kitchen table...
