I totally agree with you here, sometimes the sidebar and adjacent conversations can be lot of fun. And honestly, there's a lot times that conversations have taken a turn into biology, philosophy, folklore, etc, that aren't specifically UFO or...

Thank you for your input - I agree in general but it can be iffy sometimes. Agree. Especially when it's obvious trolling. Agree, though it's always a problem assessing intention/motivation. I would say one heads-up (one caution) to the person...

Absolutely. I'd say it's a foul to start a thread dedicated to only one pov. I'd be averse to that kind of 'policing'. When I post a thread I'm looking for a genuine diversity of views.

"The Bishop's Wife" (1947) with Cary Grant, Loretta Young, and David Niven I am gravitating to 1940s films. I get engrossed in the physical culture depicted - the sets - like in "The Bishop's Wife" all the wood-paneled rooms. In "The Fallen...

Yes great movie.

'The Third Man'

I totally do not agree with him at all. However I suppose in a democratic society we should have the right to voice different opinions.

Fair point. And science is never static. It's a process of discovery, and while some of your examples are absolutely valid, some are from a time before the FDA and the CDC, and absolutely are the reason why those organizations were formed in...

I don't understand what it is you're asking. What human cost? Are you suggesting that by merely bringing forward the issues somehow ensures people will suffer unduly and/or die? That makes no sense - it presupposes a 'higher authority' -...

Repetition can be problematic. We also had a guy years ago that posted a sound that he claimed was caught on his camera. Turned out the sound was from a film, but had been manipulated a little bit. He got called out and he started spamming...

I no longer watch current films and have begun looking past my collection of DVDs for new (to me) entertainment. This one is superb. Highly recommend. Saw it on 'Fawsome' - Free access via IMDb - FALLEN IDOL ('48). Suspense right to the final...

Question for Everyone: How would you define spamming a thread?

Well, by my standards it was. For you it would be a different call. Okay. It's a sensitive issue for me because I recall back-in-the-day when threads I started could be easily derailed with side conversations, completely smothering the discussion...

Cleanup completed. @Red If you have any issues with how your thread is progressing give me a heads-up.

Joseph Cotten as the friend betrayed by Orson Welles and the lighting of light and dark. I would have loved to have been old enough to have seen this when it first came out. Great movie.

This is a very old thread, hailing from 2008, approaching 20 years ago, and the posters involved are long gone. The last poster on the thread is intriguing because he comes on one day, joins up, posts, and is never seen again. I so wish these...

Norman Finkelstein & Jeremy Corbyn: THE INTERVIEW ISRAEL WANT TO BAN

Ya like — "Whatcha reading, listening to, thinking about?" ( duh — that could be virtually anything ) I had no problem at all. I posted what I was actually reading and thinking about, then was attacked as a conspiracy theorist and falsely...

My friend writes: "Both of my sons had whooping cough. My wife and I researched the dangers of the disease and the dangers of the vaccine They were equal. So, we treated it homeopathically with pertussis 1&2 and the herbs skullcap and vervain. We...

But if people are going to make informed decisions about anything they need to hear all sides. I'm not force-feeding anyone's information intake - they decide what they read - as will you with my next post that will be on Whooping Cough. To...

So when I pay my tax I also pay at source a thing called national insurance. That in turn goes into the roads and health care system. So when I get sick I will get the drugs I need based on my illness not based on my insurance policy. So the...

Yea as you say you can only get what is on the menu however if a new drug is available for a condition they have to tell you. A committee then sits and decides if it is affordable for general release to the NHS but even then you have the right to...
