You have to consider this forum has slowed down in the last couple of months, with not one hint of active or slightly heated debate occuring lately (I may be wrong as I haven't visited much lately either). The problem is in forum terms we are the old tired generation, and we need fresh blood in to activate discussions again. Being blunt won't be inviting to them and they'll leave while we stew around waiting for something interesting to crop up.
I gain ideas to actively lobby with from this forum, and to enhance my knowledge. I am amazed that people can broach a subject outside cyberspace (in real life) and I can now run rings around their knowledge easily when they are highly educated people. So we have to consider this site as a tool as well and try to keep active all discusions as much as possible.
