Thanks for the commendation. I appreciate that validation. I'm usually hoping to balance out some of the more derogatory and unfounded posts, but all in all I just enjoy the discourse with the fellow pontific individuals who join in the mix. Ideas are fun to construct, but even better to express for both furtherance and counterpoints via others' perspectives. Sadly, some perspectives just detract from the symbiotic search for ideas by not being receptive or not sharing, but their oblivion squandering the gift of perception is surely punishment enough.

Despite its initial context, that thread did lead to some gems.

... and I'm always happy to get reassurance that I was able to offer worthy donations to that portion of the variety.
