Granville57 said:it seems that at least one reason that the debates about “group think” go on for so long, and become so vitriolic, is that there is nowhere to actually have that debate.
Can we give that debate a home all its own?
If I remember correctly, there is a social group set up for the express purpose of "A place for forum members to discuss the sociology/pathology of positive feedback loops/self reinforcing communities/groupthink as regards to the Cycling News forums."
Have to admit it is not very active, but includes Hugh Januss and Wonderlance as particpants, two stellar forum members.
