But seriously, now I'm really amused. In the last few hours I've read new posts commenting that TC has gotten too quiet, but social media (like Facebook) are good. Now woofmutt expressed the opposite - keep TC non-Facebookish. I think this underscores what I said earlier -- we have to just deal with what crops up in a public forum, and to accept both the good and the not-so-good. Occasionally this means what some would consider mindless banter, but which could develop online impressions of our various keyboard personas. I think we've come full circle with at least a few variations of both ends of the spectrum. We can't please everyone, so why worry about it?

As long as there are good "nuggets" among the fluff, I'm fine with it. We're not all tiki researchers or tiki scholars who have only pure brilliance shooting out of our keyboards. Think of how boring that could be, and how much less likely we would be to participate in that sort of a forum.
