The title seemed like it could have been an interesting conversation.  :?
Was it a political retraction?

Pretty close to the reality (back to "behind closed doors"), by-and-large.
Anyone who blithely compared internet fora to the ol' APAs, etc., needs a reality check for large tranches of the hobby, too. ;)

Sorry for genre-fication there. I admit to being a bit out of my depth with pop culture.

One day I'll tell the story of how I found out Michael Jackson had died...six weeks prior.
