I agree. The open thread goes up before lunch time in the US, and often it's the Americans like myself, poemless, Drew, and ATinNM doing most of the talking, along with Helen who is very interested in American politics. Europeans need to bring up more European items!

When the capital development of a country becomes a by-product of the activities of a casino, the job is likely to be ill-done. — John M. Keynes

Re: Meta - ET (4.00 / 2)

"open threat" (4.00 / 4)
