Stan - How about a separate forum for political posts? If not permanently...how about till the Elections are over? Or even better...how about a new lounge forum for NON-political discussion? <br><br>Just to be clear, I don't think every topic needs its own forum, but lately the lounge is being saturated with the stuff...and I come here for diversion from reality.<br><br>Thanks for your consideration,<br><br>Alan Onymous<br><br>

If we're going to start using new forum software anyway, it might be the perfect time to experiment with something like that.<br><br><br>[color:white]God speed, mikeb. Go drive your Boxster in the big Autobahn in the sky...</font color=white>

Since the lounge is not over shadowing other post with political posts it's just that people don't post other things I would guess it would look a lot like this forum.<br><br>

Probably not....as there are people who like to talk about other things besides politics but get turned off by the amount of politics? That's my guess.<br><br>
