Fair point. I did not mean that all the regular posters were kids. What I did mean was that younger people have grown up with gutter language thrown at them from TV and the internet. I do think that affects the language that some of the current posters (maybe in their 20s) use.
I have also read several other threads--certainly not thousands--and some of the discussion is intelligent as you say. Sometimes, however, it does seem that some of the regulars like to inject comments, even accusations at times, just for the sake of controversy.

I've lurked for a month or two before joining; I don't know if that makes me a random person or not. I am an alumni member of an NPC GLO. I didn't know that longevity here was a prerequisite for participation. Obviously a few of you spend a LOT of time here. (6,000 to 17,000 posts? Where do you find the time?) I know I only have *now 7* posts, but if all you want are your own opinions, why not close the chat room? oldu asked a question and I gave my opinion.
BTW, I thought the gorilla picture was great.
