I've created a forum as a test. Let me know what you think. If you start using it, it will become a part of this site permanently. If not, it dies a slow and boring death.

I'm not actually sure that the site needs it. Being able to have open discussions would be a good thing -- but do I really care to discuss anything with my visitors?
