but would you be willing to volunteer as a host?

You've been active in this group for longer than most, seem to have a lot of experience of its ups and downs, and generally come across as fair and level-headed.

If so, you'd have my support.

I think it would be a good idea to have a host or two LeftishBrit Mar 2016 #1

Well, you and I have disagreed in the past, sometimes at some length, but it's always been civil. Denzil_DC Mar 2016 #24
Rather awkward that you raised politics then. non sociopath skin Mar 2016 #26

Oh, give me a break. It's not on political grounds, broadly or otherwise. Denzil_DC Mar 2016 #33
Great - I think it's a good idea that people from various points on the political spectrum are hosts LeftishBrit Mar 2016 #27
