As someone that has been using bulletin boards, web fora (please use the correct plural, thank you!) and usenet for considerably longer than all of you, I think it is in no small measure my considered (and not so humble!) opinion that should be regarded as the penumbra (if not the frenulum!) of the guiding ethos of the Inter-Net (as it was properly named at the 1988 Protocol Symposium which I had the honour of chairpersoning) and the appropriate method for dialogue.
However, I do not intend to repeat (or rake over!!!) old topics, as I believed we discussed this issue in depth on 12 May 2001 and then again on 14 August 2002.
