  - I will challenge the notion that there is an ST collective wisdom. - ty97 Feb 7, 17:33 10
    - The fact I am considered conservative says a lot, I think. - spamlet (iPhone) Feb 7, 17:37 5

    - The only collective wisdom I can point to is orange is bad for a board. ;) -- nm - the liioulu with Feb 7, 17:36
- Well, duh. It's politics, so it's all about the eyes of the beholder -- nm - tRu Pad Feb 7, 17:27
