It's really crap here. There's a far better forum called Rational Skepticism. It's run by a lovely lady from Australia. Ask Pappa about her. They're great friends.

I don't speak English well, so sorry for my probably errors. I'm learning it, so, if you want, correct me.

Staff member at TAF mentioned this place. I checked it out, and I'm not sure it's a right place for me, but I'll give it a shot. There's a cliquishness that doesn't feel very welcoming, and on the other hand a couple of prodigious dicks who have yet to learn how to disagree without being disagreeable -- just like any other forum, I should add.
these are things we think we know
these are feelings we might even share
these are thoughts we hide from ourselves
these are secrets we cannot lay bare.

Do you mean the inside jokes and wotnot? I've noticed that I have that feeling anytime I hang out in a 'new' forum. The people there already know each other and often don't give the impression that they care whether you stay or not. Except here. I got a welcome thread as soon as I got here, though.

What?! Why, you ignorant little...!!!!! :irate: :banghead:

Yeah, I was a little grumpy when I wrote this post, sorry.
