How the hell is that like real conversations? Even the best of friends
have differences of opinions and argue sometimes. Sometimes they even
quit talking for a while. But the bond makes them talk again. Without
"pointless bickering" it is no different than a blog. Usenet is a back
and forth thing. I hope it never goes away.
