Politics, that seems like a good place to put this.
Just because people aren't replying in droves doesn't mean they arent considering the questions privately.
They are very private questions and it would be bad business practice to let out your one and only best original idea to all on the internet. No offense, Scooter.
Often what seems like idle chatter masks a lot of behind-the-scenes action in places like this.
You guys are having a regular judgement fest on the quality and content of this forum. I imagine we will only be seeing only 'on-topic' posts from you all from now on, then? Should be interesting. :D

No offense taken,
Personally I think there has been an over reaction to a simple and probably accurate observation I made. I meant nothing bad by it, only an observation. No More. Lots of energy goes into threads that seem to only serve purpose of gossip. Not a bad thing, just an observation.
Thats my judgment fest. ;)
You already stated that you weren't going to put your #1 idea out there. I did not make comment to that. Thats your wish and I have ideas that won't be posted as well. I know where your coming from. I am OK with that. Like i really matters anyway. :biglaugh:
If for some reason you or Spider feel I am antagonizing or judging Content of this forum. Let me know. I can look at the issue. I am open to that.
I wondered about this - it didn't seem to hold water to me, and although Scooter said it others seemed to agree.
Well, as an example, the most current of PW's threads that has gone on longer than this one is "Art Teachers Suck Balls!" and I thought I'd see if the supposition that people here are wasting time more than using is 'wisely' was true --
Art Teachers Suck Balls!

IOW, Tim has 250% more replies in the first 19 hours than Zaul did.
So I do not agree that the replies here are 'extremely few.' What do they keep telling us, those 'wise' ones, that we get what we focus on?! For me, this little exercise is more proof that the gurus are not as right as they and their followers believe. One does not get more of what one focusses on, one 'appears' to get more of what one focusses on, and that appearance may 'seem' to be right, but may actually 'be' wrong!
I offer you that little revelation as my original thought!!
Just bringing over Spiders Post.
Seems like I hit a nerve. Personally Spider, I would never would have assumed you to get riled about my statement. It surprised me but its good its out there. Seems my Values thread was the starting point of your turn towards me or something. As if I had fallen off a pedestal or something. Not sure what I did but none the less, air it out please.
Respect and admiration
