why don't we go back to giving new threads subject lines that relate somewhat to the subject contained therein? while we all know that the subject will quickly morph, at least there is then some clue as to which thread is which - unlike the current situation with several threads.

thank you for your kind attention,

Sheesh, you left-brained people! We must have with this orderly universe, huh?

And where in Sam's Hill is the word to discuss here?

Oh, I know. Let's check out Mr. Fischer's Lexicon for something there on disorder....Bingo! Here's an appropriate one of many (I'm sure):

eccentricate
to go out of one's proper sphere [obs]


This thread is about the ethics of to eccentricate or not to eccentricate. Thanks a lot, tsuwm! Something new to chew on.

Best regards,
WhirlingWorld

If all the excentricated left the board, would anybody be left?

Who breaks the thread, the one who holds on, or the one who pulls?

I meant "have it out," but was having an ADD moment. Seriously.
