Moderator note: the following comment was made in another topic, and I found it humorous in a way and wanted to continue the discussion without derailing the other discussion:

Oh,are we deviating and will this affect the forum?

Yes, I am having fun with this, but not at the expense of the other topic (Lipssealed), so now we may continue this here without deviation! (Clapping)

Plus I wanted to try out a suggestion for copying posts, which works wonderfully by the way! (Yes)

They will be "moderated", I suppose (Smoking). Though there have been talks about MHB member blogs, but I'm not sure how concrete is it at the moment.

I haven't seen anything undesirable here,so far.I like this virtual world better than the real world because its a bunch of very NICE "mathmaniacs" and the chat room is good to know each others.
