Why Conversation Cafes?

As it says on the website: Because when you put strangers, caffeine and ideas in the same room, brilliant things can happen. For that very reason, the British Parliament banned coffeehouses in the 1700s as hotbeds of sedition. Might we brew up a similar social liveliness now? With democracy, critical thinking and “the ties that bind” all under siege, this may be the most radical cup of coffee you ever drink.

(From Chris) So I’m still having random blog issues, but it seems like none of the other authors are. I created a new user in order to test that theory. Hopefully it’s some adminitrative wackiness thing and not Global Spin turning against me.

Test Post

This is a test. I’m having some difficulties with the blog software. Please stand by.

UPDATE: Looks like the problem was resolved. We now return you to your regularly scheduled blogging.
