Ha! I was just googling 10 minutes ago looking for a pie subscription kind of deal so I could send my dad a banana cream pie every month. Couldn't fine one!

Fair point.

I once was sitting on a plane and this woman explained to me for the entire plane ride that the Holocaust was a hoax. Thank goodness for noise blocking headphones. This didn't stop her and she kept on talking and trying to catch my attention. Longest three hours of my life.


Sounds like your average DCUM user.

I agree. Those who forget history are doomed to repeat it. Unfortunately, a lot of revision is going on.

I'd like a weight loss forum, tech forum or cars forum before a history forum.

While it is not the perfect forum for it, right now Politics would be best. I wouldn't want to create a forum until I saw that there was lots of interest.

Any consideration to a history forum? It could be very educational. For example, I wanted to discuss FDR's policies as well as Joe Kennedy Sr., and somehow politics doesn't fit. Thoughts?
