Not I! Couldn't think of a serious topic if my life depended on it. And I don't think they want to play with me over there, I can tell when I'm not wanted, I'm taking my Barbies and going home. sniff

What was the perceived need that created that? What can happen there that cannot happen here?

The pertinent questionis, what can happen here that can't happen there? Silliness. Some people want to have a place to have discussion without off-topic zaniness. I see it as a reasonable request. I can cut up and be the doyenne of ditz here and an erudite scholar there and get all sorts of free e-books elsewhere and be a perfectly contented little chihuahua or whatever.

some people didn't like the silly threads, and they wanted a completely silliness-free forum.
Quote:

absolutely nothing ; there have always been and will continue to be discussions on all topics in the lounge, including serious ones. please feel free to start / participate in any thread you like here.

technically you can be an erudite scholar here too. it's been known to happen on many occasions.

And those that unsubscribe from the Lounge, might miss some of that erudite scholarly behavior.

I hope they check in now and again to participate in some of our more serious topics.

Believe it or not, MARC and I once had a sane discussion in the lounge about string theory and the physics book, The Elegant Universe. I'm thinking we both got ahold of some tainted ZC's that made us serious. Throw that batch down the drain!

You mean you can't be an erudite, if ditzy, small yappy-type dog all at once?

Rewarding mostly for the laddy on the door. Have you seen his recent price list? Sheesh.
