But don't you think you're stacking the deck against yourself posting in Flame? (I know ER started this one, but the "consumer-driven" economy thread below was yours.)
Sometimes I think that CurrentEvents is not quite the right venue either for serious discussion. The name implies that it deals with news, but you (and I) want to talk about timeless theory and concepts. Besides, through practice we all know that "CurrentEvents" really means "Shrieking Partisan Howler Monkeys at Work".
What about a new hierarchy of boards under the root "Public Affairs"? We can have an unlimited number of boards, and posts in child boards can be set to automatically show up in higher boards, so no worries about "Balkanization". That way, we could have an "Economic Theory" board; and because it's not Flame, we can impose higher standards than this dump.
Wadda ya think, Rob?
