Judging by what happens when things are taken from here to Overbaked, this wouldn't work. I have no idea why, something to do with inertia maybe. You never know, but i'll abstain on this one.

I wasnt thinking of bakery type discussins. Rather about technical issues where a problem crops up again after years or some fine tune requested.

True, but my point was really that discussions have a strong tendency to wilt and die when transplanted from their native soil.

Where else can you find a broad enough group of people to have a half-assed decent discussion? The pub?

Depending on who your "friends" are, you can have these kinds of discussions on the Social Disease site.

Well yeah, but...y'all are my only smart friends.
<how sad is that eh?>
You've read some of the stuff that pops outta my head. When I talk of these things anywhere else it kills a conversation faster than a fart in an elevator.
