What is the Fodorite Lounge?
I just looked for my post, the one about underage drinking in TX and it was moved to the Fodorite Lounge. What is that??? Guess I have been away for a while...

It's a new Forum set up for those lounge lizards who just want to chit-chat.

It used to be "Other topics". Editors moved some threads and created a new place to hang out.

nice place to talk about things that may not be travel related and therefore no scoldings for posting non travel threads. it used to be called "other topics".

So the moderaters can move certain posts to this place? The thread started in US, since it was a question about TX liquor laws, while in TX, visiting from CA...
Thanks for your help and replies.

No, the boneyard seems to be the US forum since the Fodorite Lounge opened.

Some of the what might be called "Please, I'm important, too" posts seem to have ended up there as well.

The really fun and non-travel related posts that had others complaining end up there. I suspect there are very few men who post there, but probably some closet readers.

Only the really cool, hip men seem to be posting there. I would list names, but you know who you are. ;-)

No hip women?
US is the boneyard. That is funny, Starrs.
Well, do the mods just switch things to that forum when they want to?
So is the lounge for all those recipe threads???

Goodness, no, Heavens. ALL the women in the lounge are hip! I was referring to Gail's post, just above mine.
Yes, there are some fabulous recipe threads there. I seem to recall a request for a recipe from you on one of those threads.

I wondered why I was only finding travel related posts here... Now I know! I love the change. Now there is a place for everyone. Thank you, Fodor's, for a clever solution.

A place where people can talk about things that are unrelated to travel. You know important things like fashion, packing, hair styles, etc.

You are welcome, Don!
Besides, anyone that offers the great travel advice you do is definitely both cool and hip!
