Closing up the Debate Shop

I really hate to do this, as i have really enjoyed debating with all of you. But unfortunately, i have to stop being actively involved in some of these debates (AKA not stirring up trouble, if that is going to be possible). I'm finding that these debates are consuming way too much of my free time, work (what i'm getting paid to do), family time, and energy. I haven't had such a blast in a long time, and i haven't been this intellectually stimulated since grad school.

Unfortuantely, as much fun and stimulating as this has been, i need to focus on other, more important (or so i'm led to believe) things, like a job, family, sleep, you know those other things. Being completely exhausted and yet staying awake for an hour after going to bed every night as my mind processes arguments, discourses, debate points, where i read or heard this or that so as to have verifiable resources for those who demand them, and such is usually not the best thing in the world.

So i will try to close up my arguments today ...hmmm... or maybe over the weekend... - (slaps hand) stop it, you must spend time with your family. - Well anyways, i will try to close up my arguments today, and maybe later i can come back and debate some more.

This doesn't mean that i won't be around and commenting on stuff. It just means i will try to not cause too much of a stir. :-( (Try being the key word)
