JoannRethinking my post on this thread out-dysfunctionaling (wow - great new word) the epic NYC dinner thread.
I don't think this thread can surpass the NYC dinner thread for absurdity just by number of posts. See, this thread is ad hoc, eclectic, free-for-all, all topics mixed together. That's a whooole lot easier to keep going.
The NYC dinner thread was sublime because it managed to go 185 posts, many filled with rancor and debate (like this one), but also stayed pretty much on one topic AND managed to never reach a conclusion. That one was art. It's going to take a whole lot more than number of posts and garden-variety arguing to top that.

PS - Leon, I vote for 86ing the homophobic posts, but NOT because of a request from either Colt or Jim that claims the other is setting that tone. Shame on both or either if they ask you to delete it and imply that it's the other one that's being inappropriate.
