One more point (many more coming… slowly)
You’re taking this (hollowed) place MUCH TO SERIOUS. This “place”, clique if you will has more or less begotten a life of it’s own. Existing posters from way, way back, each coming to the table with such diverse backgrounds, hashkafos, ideals and ideas. You have to be in it for some time till you get the ropes, figure out who’s who and what’s what.
