UT: Yeah, it looked like a thread killer, but I don't think it is, really. Unfortunately, the conversation part of the thread, the back and forth part, needs some.. tension, some difference. Without that, everyone's saying, Yup, I agree. And in this case, the only dissenting voice is UG's. This happens sometimes, but in this case, since his remarks are the nail sticking up, *that's* what gets hammered down.

We wound up all agreeing, unanimously, that this Executive Order is a bad idea. Great. Now what do we talk about? UG's fidelity to the definition of "fanboy"? The only thing I see that doesn't apply is the word "young", but then we're talking about UG again.

Show of hands: Who thinks this EO is a bad idea? Too bad I can't retro this thread and put a poll on it. EO: Good Idea or Bad Idea.

The thread's not dead. But without being fanboyish a'la Digg or Reddit, I say this is wrong wrong wrong.
