Now guys I'm perfectly serious, and Mgmt, please don't delete this'n, I'm not tryin' to be difficult, I know I'm somehow a real pest, but I just never know......

So, out of some 100,000 potential a2k parti'p's, does anyone else know of a Chat-Room website as lib as this'n' usta be. I'd need a link

If it leans to sci, ed, journ, philo, etc, I'd like it

Thanks all

No, dale, that was not Centrox. Your link brings us to a post from myself informing you of this site's status. Centrox doesn't even make an appearance in that thread.

There have been a few over the years. I spent a long while over at Deathlist. Interesting site where members post about newly dead or those expected to be dead soon. They have a fresh class of 50 hopeful possibilities starting each January 1. So far this year they've gotten 10 hits!

When you say they've had "10 hits", you make it sound like the message board members are making their death predictions come true by taking matters into their own hands.

@Blickers,
If only it were that easy.

No, death pools and dead pools are just a bunch of guesses. Some of the guesswork involves listing those who are known to be in declining health or up in years. Other choices include dictators, not well-liked politicians and known drug or alcohol abusers of the celebrity world.

Apparently this sort of thing is very popular as there are several websites devoted to this sort of thing. Interaction with board members at these places ranges from pleasant to downright vicious - same as many places on the net.

@Sturgis,
Given the condition of the world today, on the verge of nuclear war if not environmental destruction, death is on our minds isn't it

@dalehileman,
I spend a lot of my time at a similar site called Fluther (fluther.com). I don't know if it's quite what you're looking for but I figured I'd suggest it.

@dalehileman,
Speaking of not only a lazy person, but rude, Dale can probably manage to google Fluther.com.
