Do we need our own hall of fame to be changed a little?.. does it need an extra section or two?. Are there people we can honour by way of nomination here, be they of Music, Science, Sense, public acts, acts of heroism, or any other section needing mentioning?.
Does that need a "alive or dead" partition?.. can we have a past and future section, do we nominate and await someone to agree, anything more than 3 votes gets an entry, or do we just nominate our own choices?. To voting, do we just note who "likes" the nomination by a thumbs up?.
How to nominate, just mention a name, or is it a name and a quick max 360 character [ish] paragraph on why?.
This is partly because the rock and roll hall of fame is biased, and partly because there are people out there who are not getting any recognition at all for their own acts in many fields. And nominated for Nobel prise isnt a title you hear much is it?. Plus the media oscar grammy and all that cr@p only go for those needing their ego stroked. I think we can be more honest on here cant we?.
I am asking herer to get some ideas before I go to the thread of board ideas, because I need to know if its worth mentioning.

Maybe we need a hall of fame for board members. That way, we could all vote each other in, just like they do in Hollywood.

No we are not in competition with other award jokers ceremony that puts the bieber in as best newcomer to being an ijurt. This is an idea to just make note of certain people who have done well. Such as Elon Musk. Even Richard Branson, who may not have personally done many things, but his work has promoted those who do into public domain?. And then the whole team of SSC? Bloodhound, who were out doing test runs yesterday here in UK.
The idea is to give praise to those who we all know have done well, but perhaps promote those we dont know into public knowledge. Past or present. And you can include architects, the builders, backing musicians, even the drummer if they are that worthy....
Greg, if you wish to promote other board members, why not?. Some of us deserve recognition...
Even if it is Loki, because "Some say" he needs an Allen key to put his trainers on, and has invented a new way of using a door, because he put the hinges on the bottom and uses it as a ramp.

Was just joking. Unless it's the infamous hall of shame. In which case, I would like to nominate myself.

So was I , and I "second" your nomination for yourself, on the grounds of the one most likely to have a parallel ruler, theodolite, and be able to know how to use both without needing an instruction manual. Actually, I need to admit, I have used a theodolite myself in the past, to measure the height of Mountains from a Trig point... We already know how high they are?.. sure, but we need to know they aint on the move. One of the local hills above Castleton is known as the Shivering mountain... Its not so much the up and down of that one , its the side to side and by how much.
