Groon: I share your subdued interest in that thread. It had gotten very far removed from Bradbury. However, there had been some interesting discussions on it, and there were a lot of postings -- meaning people were more interested in it than I was. So if Dandelion can get it up and running again, I think there will be several people pretty happy to see it back.

The thread itself was sort of a pain as it was one more thing to keep track of and much harder than on-topic discussions on which to impose guidelines--like people posting fiction on the board--which we ought to just plain make a rule AGAINST! (But then, would that extend to poetry, which can sometimes add up to heartfelt tributes to good old RB?) I don't even care about the thread so much any more as the principal! How DARE "they" dump 600 of our posts into deep cyberspace! Who is "HAL" to say which of OUR posts are important and which are not? DON'T LET THEM DO THIS TO US!
