Any interest in reading something for the sole purpose of finding out how your fellow Orgahs took it? Consensual experiences are something I think alot of people in general dig; personally I keep coming back to the backroom for that in particular. Don't tell me none of you have seen an interesting headline, book, or movie where you didn't think, 'Hrm, what would Louis or Frag have to say?' or 'I bet Don C and Pindar would have a good lol at this!'
What I think could be fun, is starting a book club, where anyone interested can suggest a book they'd like discussed, with a line or two about why. Then the selections can be put to a poll thread for a few days, and then we have our book. Anyone who's interested in participating then has a month or so to work their way through the book, and it can be discussed in that thread. Obviously people's book-reading time varies greatly from Orgah to Orgah, so a simple spoiler tag can be used if you feel like you're talking about a part of the book that can ruin it for someone who's behind you in page turning. I'd like it to be totally obligation free; if you're a part of the voting process and you were campaigning hard for Anna Karenina and yet an illustrated bio of Spiderman wins the vote, you should obviously feel no guilt in saying to hell with that month.
Anyway, just curious if there's any interest at all back here in something like this. I was just throwing out some rough guidelines, and if you're interested yet you have different ideas for an approach, I'm all ears.
