This is an attempt to stop the bleeding of participating, interactive members away from this forum by reinstating the politics room.

Why don't you post a poll thread here to re-open the Politics/Society forum.
Yes
No
Don't care

I tried but don't know how to do the poll format...

i can't help but think that it will take me waaaay longer to get my next 24k posts than it took to get the first. it's too bad that a few bad apples spoiled that barrel for the rest of us. i miss it, i miss the discourse (altho it did get rough at times) and i still read stuff and think oh, i could...and then i remember we can't talk about such things here anymore.
slate is the only other place i post-and it's just not the same.

Sure you might get action in the political room, but the paddock will still be the sound of crickets...

Why and when did Indian Charlie leave?

As long as the "colts" get equal time (no geldings please).

I like Oxbow for the Derby. Four prep races (unheard of in this day of kid gloves) and he seems like a tough sob who actually thrives on racing.

Now I must go shovel my driveway and walk the dogs.

Southwestern Mass. in the Berkshires about 50 minutes from Hartford.

I'll take winter any day over the heat, humidity, and insects.
