Derailment: informative in the short term, humorous in the long term.
And we wonder why tfp has such funding problems....it's like trying to have a group discussion in class--moderators clutching their yardsticks.

Had you PM'd me, I would have told you that the key phrase is "a little" and that I was addressing something specific, not a general "dandy(ing) about", but you instead chose to throw out some public complaint that has nothing to do with the thread for some unknown reason.
I don't believe that an impartial outsider would come here and think that we stiffle conversation as much as a radical few insist.
