TWIMC,
One thing I have noticed since joining this 'club' is that
ideas come out, get modified, bounce back, get modified, ect..
I will not say that 'No new ideas appear', but that many
variations on proven/past themes come to light to 'solve'
problems which may or may not exist based upon ones point of
view.
The discussions are always (reasonably) enjoyable.
Always interesting, wandering, sidetracked, wisecracked, thoughtful,
and writted in English, Aussie, and American, what more can one want
for light entertainment.
Bye for now,
John L.
