Brainstorm

[Excited Penguin]

EP, I think some of these all-in-one threads you've started aren't really a great idea.  Rather than having one brainstorming thread for all situations requiring brain storming, isn't it better to go on organizing threads by topic into various sub-forums?  It makes it easier to search for relevant past topics for one thing.

I'd recommend starting a new thread for each topic you'd like to brainstorm.

Sometimes discussions can take us in surprising directions. This thread is meant to circumvent that and be a place where minds can meet at anytime for a quick debate/discussion about the current issue, whatever it might be.

It's not my intention that everyone dumps every other thread and comes here to talk about it. I actually envision only a few people at a time talking here, and not necessarily about what is being talked elsewhere on the forums. How is that bad?
