I've read a lot of this thread and think that is contains a lot of useful and personal information which I have learned from both topics and individual thoughts,
However it is a large, very large thread, I think it should be saved as an archive. Those who want to read it have the ability to read it, those who don;t well, that's up to them.
It is a very large thread that if you don't keep up with it, will ignore it.
Just my .02
