b) pseudo-intellectual, pretentious, repetitive, and ignorant

As someone who lives in the Bay Area of California, I come across both camps of thought in some form or another...EVERYDAY.    Our part of the world is inundated with political coversation, some of which I do take part in (when and where it's appropriate!).  However, I do not need political rhetoric in a discussion group related to things I do for fun!

Is there any way to keep the politics out of the Orb group?
