While I appreciate your effort to keep us busy,
magiciansampras, I'm not really convinced there's a need for this. I, for one, read TalkMail, and find the threads in there to be rather informative/entertaining/worth reading. I'm not sure what makes you think "an ineffective and bureaucratic TB" would do a good job with this. After all, there are many barriers and levels of bureaucracy that would stand in the way of creating a truly valuable listing of threads. Would we have to vote on which threads would be included? What if there's not agreement? This might be a good task for some maverick FlyerTalkers, but given the layers of bureaucracy, I see more issues than value with this proposal.
Wouldn't you agree?
