[FRIAM] The FRIAM

[Phil Henshaw]

What I think would be nice for 'mining' forums like this would be for 
a publisher trying to stay on the edge have an editor pick out a few 
threads, from different forums perhaps, that appear to be testing new 
waters and invite critque and response.   

That would somewhat correct the problem I see with the linear thread 
structure of these open forum discussions at least.  Mostly things 
don't get integrated and discussed here because every reply tends to 
change the subject.  You get a random walk of thinking rather than 
neigborhoods well explored.
