I learned that term right here..applied to -- guess who?
I, like Shirleypal the OP's topic, came here solely for the Coast topic discussion and Art Bell. I heard Art mention Linnea and the fantasticforum.com board, jumped in the ORR and became a regular there. I had only the interest in politix that was generated by Art on his show - which was not much. And the more I learn about the topic, the less I want to see of it - And the more I see that my grandpa - a Missouri farmboy, was right about bankers, lawyers, politicians and even the seed companies of his day...and this was in the early 60's when I was <10 years old.
This forum could use another Shirleypal, ie avid Art Bell fan, long-time C2C listener and active poster in these areas. Someone like that could maybe breathe some life back into the old place..life that the latest host and show has seemed unable to generate. I guess we were spoiled by the best and anything less falls way short of the bar Mr Bell set.
