Meta-comment: this thread seems to be HN's stoop. There's only 29 comments and we've got people talking about little bits of their lives, where they've lived, their current neighborhoods. It's pretty nice to have this little snippet of semi-off-topic HN. Is there any interest in a "weekly stoop" thread where people just comment about whatever interesting thing that comes up, nothing in particular? Things people find interesting, little discussions, things people want to know about. The kind of things that aren't really big enough for separate submissions, but could make up a few comments. I feel like that'd be pretty interesting. Has it been tried before?
