I'm sure neocon will be in. He's such a cuddly fellow when you stroke him right. I think your's is an excellent suggestion, and a fine use of his talents. But we must be sensitive here not to try to impose anything on the Cluckers. There is the great danger that we might be viewed as closet sexists, not thinking the women are up to the task. Which would be totally wrong. They have already proposed, for example, that their official dining place be KFC. Now we might think this a bit lower class, but they choose it over other cluckery options, and we should either respect their choice even if we consider it a bit, uh, declasse. But they haven't yet chosen an Official Potluck Dish of the Cluckers. Here we might be able to offer some more, uh, upscale suggestions, before they get stuck on Chicken a la King. Perhaps we could suggest Chicken Kiev. Or Chicken Cacciatore, Chicken 'a La Roma, or some other equally delectable dishes which one wouldn't find at a KFC. By helping them in this way, and monitoring the Cluckery to see what other choices they are making, or what guidance they might find helpful, we could help restore a spirit of friendliness and cooperation to SI which seems to have been briefly mislaid.
