I will say this though, it's a lot better without Shane involved. Sorry Shane

I agree. I think that the key to having decent discussions is to stringently not allow those who will dominate the discussion and cause serious rancor. Shane simply dominated discussions and really brought them to the next level in terms of rancor. If we can not take these discussion too seriously and not let them really change our opionions of each other I think they can be good. Of course of politicians could do the same it would be great.

For example, I can basically see that Matty and I have pretty much polar views on politics but I still think he does a great job on the site and seems like a good guy. Just because we disagree politically doesn't mean I think he is dumb or dishonest or anything. In fact I would say based on a lot of history that he is very honest and comes off intelligent.

I am guessing unfortunately that their will be some who cannot see a distinction when disagreeing with someone else. We need to watch out for these types.
