Beg pardon, but you are witnessing the making of an alive and
dynamic cultural and social anthropology. You are part of it. It be
the net. This, like our culture, is instant cultural anthropology!

Instead of posting a wish list for everyone to fulfill, how
'bout you choose a subject and ask the ones who responded to you on
this thread to help you out to get something started. Choose even an
ill-formed question. The nice thing about living the culture is that
you don't have to be perfect here.
