Unfortunately, once a thread is started it becomes a child you have given unto the world. One can no more force a thread to stay on course than one might force a child to grow to become a ditch digger rather than a doctor. Indeed, if one poster expresses the budding desire to engage in intercourse - social intercourse that is - with another on this thread, one is best to abide by the Prime Directive as set forth by Captain James T. Kirk and do nothing to interfere with or influence the course of activities.
