Ah hell... NOW what are we supposed to do?
I like it, but would still like to see a section with the different regions having their own little forum.

What benefit does that provide for the community here in general?

Parochialism never hurt anybody!
I don't support regional forums. I like being forced to sift through posts from the coastal and southern idiots while looking for things that I really care about. If there were regional forums, I'm afraid I'd only look at the Midwest idiots posts and lose touch.

Like one for Lemons, then the other lesser religions like Chump, SCCA, NASA , NASCAR, FIA ect...

I see what you've done there. It amuses me.
I'm sure the west coast teams here on the board could care less about east coast carshows we ocaisionally drag out cars to or mom and pop shops/junkyards offering local Lemons teams help/deals, or even local teams wanting to help each other out with organized tech days... There are at least 5 Lemons teams (off the top of my head) in the Greater Charleston SC area and it's sometimes difficult to get ahold of each other here on the board. I have deliberately not posted on the forums due to the fact I felt like I would be upsetting people out of area with notices only benefiting local teams around here.
Please take the suggestion with the helpful tone it was offered with. It was not my intention to ruffle any feathers... geesh...
I disagree on the regional forums thing. I like the cross-pollination that happens when we wade through stuff from other areas. I find it entertaining.
As far as not clogging up the board with your regional/area stuff, I'd go ahead and post it. People can ignore it if they don't like it. But like I said, I'd find it interesting that Charleston is having a crapcan car show or that the pick n pull in West Weedsboro is having a half-off used brake rotor sale or whatever. I'm easily amused.
If you want to make your post regional why not use a prefix on the subject such as...
WEST:
SOUTHEAST:
NORTHEAST:
CENTRAL:
MARS:
URANUS:
Poor PLUTO. No longer a planet.

The sonofabitch deserved it. Funky orbit and so small. Little punk barely qualifies as a moon!
Oh boy, is our first off-topic forum flame war going to break out over the esoteric topic of de-conferring planetary status on Pluto? I can't wait for this one!

you remember back when pluto was a planet and we had twinkies? Those were the days!
9 Planets > 8 Planets
everyone knows there are at least 13 planets.
Speaking of moons... this one looks just like a pig.
Oooh.. the business end.
The party end isn't much better, but at least there is bacon in the middle.
