Yep, gotta gozillion of em. Some fair, some biased, some so far off the wall that my tiny little ledge where I perch is ever diminishing. Yet I fear falling off not, for here at CHB I can relish in all manner of discourse protected by the parachute of reasoned debate.

Lately I've detected the lack of participation from some of the most able minded It's ever been my pleasure to read, with some throwing in the towel and others either too busy or facing private situations that keep them away.

This has left my parachute tattered and threadbare, my needle case empty, and my bobbin bereft of thread in the Singer of my mind.

Perhaps this is the way we are to be undone.
