    Tech/gadget forum?

    Hey, El Duderino-- how about setting up a forum for people who want to talk about gadgets? I think there would be lots of takers. Even if they don't want to talk about my Droid.

    GREAT IDEA. I'm all for it.

    Call it toy stories.
    When a true genius appears, you can know him by this sign: that all the dunces are in a confederacy against him.

      I third this idea. I would call it "The Phone Booth."

        I fourth it, and propose it be called "The Lab."

          You phreak.
          Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

            Oh, I like that better. The Lab. Or maybe The Laboratory. It'd be our Gadgets and Technology forum.

            After that we can have a forum called The Lavatory created... it would, of course, exclusively host exUteAllujah's posts.

            Seriously, though... The Lab or The Laboratory would get my vote.

              I know I'm supposed to be a tech guy, but I jut barely got a cell phone...And a $10 one at that. I got a goPhone as I won't use very many minutes.

              I've just never really needed one sitting at a desk all day and I'm your typical cheap mormon.

                Clearly you don't understand the joy of having a really cool gadget, whether you really need it or not!

                      As much as I love gadgets, I am not sure this deserves an entire forum.

                      If I have a dime for every forum that has been proposed....

                            But there we cannot discuss tech issues from the unique LDS perspective on such matters.
