Improv

Okay, this is mostly for Michael Hall, as he's mentioned he doesn't like emails saying "look at this thing!" (fourth comment), so I'm propping it on the ol' blog for pull-down goodness. Joss Whedon posted at Whedonesque the other day about High Stakes 2004, held last Sunday. The comments in the thread range from inane to deeply thoughtful, and ZachsMind especially has a tone. Also interesting was the civility of exchange among members. Apologetic, considerate, respectful, temperate, even moderate discussion, even though the subject matter often touched Bushy vs. Kerry contentious hot-hot-hot issues, and even though the members seem a fairly diverse lot. I was impressed, and I spent half an hour reading more than 200 comments. Skim it, anyway. (Don't forget to read Joss's bio.)
