PC is surprisingly mild and rational relative to a lot of political forums. It seems that usually they get completely dominated by one particular position or just devolve into simple shouting matches. Here, I think there is a nice balance. I find it much more interesting and fun than debating the finer points of speaker wire.
IF YOU PAY FOR ANYTHING OTHER THAN LAMP-CORD, YOU HAVE BOUGHT THE SNAKE-OIL AND WASTED YOUR MONEY!!!!!

Couldn't resist.

BTW, I use old extension cords, and they seem to work quite well.
