Hrmm...while I haven't read all of those books - granted I am still relatively young (sub 30) - I too feel like I have no outlet to really debate various topics that I would love to. People really aren't interested. If there was some forum where people of like minds could get together and talk (verbally, not typing on a keyboard) say a Google Hangout or something, I think that would be awesome and definitely something I would be interested in. Provided it can be moderated and organized and not be chaos (and focused on content, learning, expanding knowledge, etc.).
