I thought I saw you at one point, Mickey, but I wasn't sure.  Talked to Wolfhowls *waves*, and had a fun time getting books signed and listening to the Q&A stories.  Awesome night!  :)

Hey was FairyFreak the woman with blonde hair with that guy that didn't talk because I was too busy asking Mr. Butcher too many damn questions?

Oh, hey!  I forgot to introduce myself to you!  You came in after me, and I was already squished into place.  :)  I was on your side of the room against the wall.  Don't remember if you were there when we were talking about when we lived in alaska, but that was us if you were.  Mickey's description is pretty good, short hair, glasses.  :)  It was great meeting everyone!!

Hummus....the crazy man's queso.  I like queso... 

Hmmm...is that a debate or a discussion?  (Actually, for the record, I think hummus is fine too  :D)

I agree with a previous poster that this topic is a concern that the nerdfury over in TV land threads has created.  I also agree that the nerdfury will die down eventually.   

To me, there is no problem either with debate or discussion, it's all in the tone.  And that can be the hardest thing to monitor, because the written word lends itself to be misinterpreted without facial expressions or voice inflections.  What one person thinks is a riviting debate on a topic, might be seen as an attack by someone else.  This is the trickiest part of internet chatting, trying to create the appropriate tone in your posts to convey what you're trying to say.  That's one reason smileys are so important.   :D

See, there is a world of difference between:

Man, you're one crazy fool!

and

Man, you're one crazy fool!   ;D

So, I guess my advice is to not try and separate discussion and debate (because no one will ever agree on what they mean...which is a debate, right?), but instead, to use more goofy smiley faces.   ::)

Is anyone else geeked out inside that the ticker switched over to counting days instead of a month and days??  I did a little internal squeel when I saw the days numbered on the ticker...kinda sad really... :P
