who is a contrarian and who gets along with others. It's easy to see who is loud about things, and who takes offense at whom. There's 38k lurkers, most of whom can attest to the same things I'm saying. We may lurk, but we can figure things out, for heaven's sake.

I don't care for your "you haven't been here long enough to have an opinion" stance. I've lurked long enough to eventually figure out who likes Bronco and how doesn't. Who like Rose and who doesn't. Who likes MLM's and who doesn't. Who likes baseball and who doesn't. Most lurkers can do the same. Give 'em some credit already. There's some pretty smart ones in our group.

On a different vein, I've picked up on who the willing butt of the jokes are around here. I've also picked up on the non stop bickering. I've seen posts and replies, civil and uncivil behavior. I can only imagine what the "hidden" non-donor categories offered.

So yes, I'll have an opinion. It'll be wrong sometimes, but if I know this place as well as I think I do, being wrong qualifies me to fit right in.
