Same! Especially if they focus on more human stories or abstract approaches to tackling the subject. Just don't be too preachy guys.

I am excited that there appears to be a clear direction and focus, something they haven’t had for at least 15 years.

Why is there a new thread? We can merge threads and change the name of the old one.
this is why we have multiple mods so B can be a tyrant
I am very rarely a tyrant.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?
