Do you think we ought to allow members of the Runcible Spoon Society honorary membership of the Thingites?

The sheer bulk of this conversation scares and confuses me. More than the topics contained within in fact. And Foon IS better.

HERETICS! 
Even contemplating the Foon instead of is akin to calling Thing by its' old name! PERSECUTE THE HERETICS!
Next you'll all be sayingthe "W" word out loud. What is this place coming to, no respect for tradition.
Say it loud, say it Proud "I'm a ist Thingite!"
even the sound of Foon is weak compared to the powerfull
