It's perhaps questionable whether every person here is mentally disturbed, but we are all dentally matured. In other words, we like chewing topics on threads, and spitting them out in new forms. In fact, a thread, well-chewed and spat out in new forms, is the most successful thread of all.

In the spirit of clarification and mad mastication,
