So please forgive the newby nature of my question, but I want to make sure I'm playing by the rules here. Every forum I play on has some kind of threadjack/ask-a-question/meandering thread. Is this that thread? Is it kosher to veer to a new topic? Or is it just an open conversation? Do we have an ask-a-question thread here? Those are fun. You have to answer the previous question and then ask yours.
