Why isn't there a section in the forum to talk of the articles in the magazine?

9 Comments

I just added a forum container called "General Popular Science Magazine Discussion." Discuss away...

thanks but its not finished:
the error say that the section is only a container and it needs a subsection.

the error says:

The item General Popular Science Magazine Discussion is only a container for forums. Please select one of the forums below it.

What does that mean?

Please tell me how hard it is to click on a few buttons and create a forum section. It will take less than a few seconds of your precious time.

@jjohn- It is very hard to click a few buttons. Particularly when clicking those buttons require several stretches of the imagination, two trips to a supervisor's office, three brainstorming sessions, and a cup of hot coffee.

I quit...I will read the mag until the sub. runs out and never buy it again. There are other sites to get science news and discuss it

I dunno, jjhon. It's hard to find a better bunch of users than we have here.

I have nothing against the people here. I believe they are very nice people but I wish it were much more easier to interact with the rest of the popsci community more easily.

It's not hard to interact with us. Just post a thread with the word "bozo" in the title in the general ppx discussion and I guarantee that people will interact with you.

June 2012: Invent Your Own Anything

The 6th annual Invention Awards are here, from an inflatable tourniquet to a better lobster trap to spring-loaded hocket skates. This issue is all about the celebration of invention.

Plus: Making synthetic biology breakthroughs in a garage, building a constantly-moving ping-pong table, and a ridiculously overpowered barbecue.
