    I've been checking every few months and it is always a ghost town here. What I'm thinking is we need to reactivate this forum by encouraging a few select other members to start dropping by. If we can get those 'active' few to come here instead of the SB then I believe we can initially build up a reasonable amount of exchanges which, in turn, will most probably lead others to start dropping by. For starters, I'd like to get Matt, Balbose, 011111100010‬, Eddy, Stable Genius (maybe even OG) and a few select others to start posting here. I propose to open a post in the SB and specifically invite these few. The Back Room may have a moderator but we will have a lot more liberty to post and say what we want. I do not want the Back Room to become a virtual free for all. On the other hand, it would be great to have a place to freely speak out minds without concerns of having our posts censured or deleted. Are you interested? If so then I will post an invitation to the above few to join us here. Look on the bright side. You could take a temporary leave of absence from the SB and instead spend your time here. Cheers, Ian History is the joke the living play on the dead.

    With any luck, I am on the last job of my life. I was almost to the point of embracing retirement after getting laid off, but some silly recruiter talked an employer into hiring me. :) Before the oath, Trump has managed to surpass 2nd term Nixon for paranoia, 2nd term Reagan for corruption & 2nd term Bush for incompetence.--R.

    There are some real prats on COP currently, people who seem to take it on themselves to police it, according to their rules. Is Colin another of these?

    There was an article on it some time before 29 August because that is when I posted "why the off topic propaganda" as purplesuit1. The post is now deleted, but the title might still be there (or not). I don't know how to find old editions of Daily News.
