It’s that time of year — you know, when our old message board is plagued by casino advertising, dirty pictures and other undesirable things. I don’t know how much cleaning up there is to do over there, so instead of trying to revitalise a dying forum, I’ve started this experiment.

I thought of it because really, other than montrealshows.com, who goes to message boards anymore? The range of topic for a curious Dears fan isn’t that broad, and so for now I have created some general discussions where you can leave your comments or questions. There’s also no logging in and no identification required, so no strings attached: unbridled thoughts are encouraged here.

I plan to re-appoint some authors and administrators, so other topics can be maintained and updated.

Anyhow, this is just an experiment. It may or may not work, but for now it’s a place to talk Dears.
