Sorry for not responding, my family has been sick.

I believe I wasn't clear enough in what it was I was trying to say. My bad. I am not looking for the conversations over what is considered "Great Literature" by scholars. But what is is to the individuals here?

I also know that this is a forum for ereaders and ebooks, that was why I originally was drawn to here.

I am familiar with the belief that there are no "new" ideas anymore, though I personally disagree with that statement. There are always new ideas and thoughts on things.

I am really only dispirited by the same threads, with the same topics. It isn't that I don't understand the normalcy of the regurgitation of certain topics, It's just that it doesn't seem to be moving anywhere. Some of the topics like copyright get muddled because the OP or the posters are from different countries with different laws... and then confusion ensues, over and over. (Not that I really think a forum is the best place to get legal device)

And yes this is the internet, you are SUPPOSED to entertain me, at least while I am supposed to be working.... (sarcasm)

This forum actually did give me something I wanted. Some drama, some people that took it too personally, and some that made me laugh.
