I'm with lester1/2jr.  Most of what I say doesn't get anything in reply.  I think the longest discussion I had was with Mr. Funk and it was about his name (which I'm jealous of).

Starting threads on a board like this is kinda like fishing

In this case, you have the right to cast your line, the fish have a right not to nibble, so don't worry too much about it...some may just not be attracted to your bait

We all have the desire to raise topics that we hope will catch others' attention. I can remember starting a thread, no pun intended, about the Spider Man trailer with the World Trade Center towers (I am still embittered it is not on the 2 discs as a hidden feature). This was a very interesting subject to me, yet it didn't get many responses.
I would suppose that people in general have a strong desire to be heard and listened to by others. The Internet is a fabulous tool in this respect, we can share thoughts and ideologies with others all over the globe. But this is a double-edged sword; if no one responds to our thoughts, does it mean we are boring on a global scale? If a post receives multiple slams, does this encourage one to not post again?

It is unfortunate that some posts are not followed up on. How many chances to explore new viewpoints have been lost in the digital graveyard for lack of interest?

I gotta switch to Decaffinated.

Good point.

I don't think there's anything wrong with being disappointed if your post fails to receive a response. We post because we want to know what others think, even if the post is not a question. Any statement posted on this board might just as well be followed by the question "What do you think about this?"

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
