"Big Brothers intellectual gladiators?" Who is this aimed at?
"debate?" A debate isn't a debate until people start debating. If you want
to plan a debate it's usually a good idea to *ask* those who are apparently
joining the debate if they would like a debate. If you're being spontaneous
about the debate, then you shouldn't be planning the debate in the first
place. Just write your ideas clearly, remembering that many of us have
little time to spare, drop it in the meme pool and see what happens.
