It was a typo of sorts actually, was meant to be "conversation without petty debate". As a longterm reader, I have seen my fair share of that here, generally ends in a counterproductive mess. Of course I encourage all views to be expressed, even those that differ from my own provided they are civil.

With regards to the rest of your post, too much venom considering you have nothing to lose although frustration is shared.
The "twits" as you refer to them, can still make this work but it really needs to be this year or we're all going to be echoing your words and then some.

I don't wish to annoy anyone already on edge by saying this, but a little patience and lets see what the year brings us.
