Well, as you might of noticed. Before we were talking about this, were
weren't really talking about much of anything for a little while. I don't
think there is any need to 'quel' threads, and try to herd the conversation
back to actually building bots. When there is interest in a different type
of discussion topic, then we'll all talk about that. Everything we talk
about has some merit. I say lets let the discusion go as it pleases.
