Hey John! Yes, I too decided to see if my spin on the "U.S. only" focused forums of my creation could coexist peacefully rather than fighting the powers that be. My forums seek to target the fan side of things, and build it from there. Last night was awesome. Oscar took to the boards and the chat, as I watched things slowly unfold. You have a great thing here. Just think of my forums as a dash of mulling spices in your bubbling brew Come by and register. Thanks goes out to everyone so far

Your debate can be passionate and the use of adult language doesn't get you a slap on the wrist from some moderator. There are not 5000 different fourms so I don't have to worry that my post about whatever is gonna be in the right place. The owners are not beholden to some business that doesn't like what someone posts and works to silence them. There is no formal association with a sanctioning body, so again it is hard to silence the critics. So to answer John's question, people should be made to feel welcome, which I know happens here. As to the second part, a live chat would be a good idea. Open it up anytime to registered users. NO scheduled times as this is anti anarchistic!! It is useless for the sheep to pass resolutions in favour of vegetarianism, while the wolf remains of a different opinion. William Ralph Inge TANSTAAFL |

Derek, my name is Jonathan Taylor, and I'll get around to it today. Thanks for the heads up. Mark, I don't expect to see any of you CO folks there anyways. However, it was nice to see Alix Hakala there last night. Oh, that's right...he's from Wyoming I just appreciate the support of my supporters that have been there for the past three years. Its funny how back in the day when I had the postnuke site up I even gave you nocoast guys props in an article on the site, and never even got a polite thank you. Funny, that was when the site got several thousand unique hits a day too. Thanks for the appreciation man...really thanks. No worries, cuz you are right. We don't. However like Jimmy says...press on

Technically, AJ's from Colorado and just is up there going to school and I'm from Wyoming and am down here going to school.
I was going to join in on the rally chat, but got involved in a three hour conversation with John. I think I got a tad bit too drunk too while talking and drinking too much. We don't need another forum, but the chat things kind of cool I think. PS> Thanks for the link on rallyboy.com. Did you ever go back and look at what you actually linked to? If I recall it was a video part of the site that had one of our videos and a Gunther music video. It was quite funny really. Oh yeah, and I recall meeting you in Steamboat. Grant Hughes |

I see you have been given that suggestion over on your forum by some dude from fawlin Siberia!!!! Holy sheet! You going to do it? It really is a excellent idea, so much LESS posturing when we think of somebody as Bob or Fred or Enrique instead of what we know are shields or ways of hiding. Whaddya stink?
