If the press really do want to understand and get a balanced idea about the swinging scene and SwingingHeaven...
Why don't you (the Admin) get them to produce a list of the type of questions they have and what they want to hear about. Then post the questions on the site, allowing a range of members to 'openly' give their views and comments. Then either:
A - just let them read it.
B - remove all the silly crap and send it to them.
This would deter people from:
1 - saying shit they shouldn't.
2 - gossiping a pile of crap.
3 - dishing the dirt for dosh.
4 - slipping up and saying wayyyyyyyyy too much in terms of personal details and sensitive information.
Thus:
- we would all know the purpose of the questions (transparency is a wonderful thing)
- we would all know what was being said.
- we could challenge any bollox before it hit the news stand.
- no nasty surprises.

Is this a guy thing then? Mr W likes everything neat & tidy in the trolley- to the point where I just have to shake things up a little.
He'dl be carrying a Regatta shopping bag & wearing a lightweight beige jacket if I let him

there is new book out that poses questions about the sort of thing you never knew you needed to know until you saw the question, if you know what I mean
anyway, Ive no intention of buying the book so here are a couple of the questions it asks.
does anyone know the answer?
why dont penguines feet freeze?
does beheading hurt?
why is snot green?
why is the sky blue?
does your bum look smaller if you wear black?

Re:
The equal tempered scale has each note spaced such that the next highest note is the 12th root of two times the next lowest note in the scale. We take the octave and break it up into 12 equal multiplicative steps.
x12 = 2
x = is the multiplier between adjacent notes on the scale.

Re: Cookies
Why does a cookie crumble? Using a laser beam to closely monitor the fault lines of cookies emerging from an oven, a doctoral student appears to have figured out how bakers can stop disappointing their customers by shipping crumbled ones.
The discovery, published in the Institute of Physics (IOP) journal Measurement Science and Technology, could result in the perfect cookie. See Saleem, Q.; Wildman, R. D.; Huntley J. M.; and Whitworth, M. B. 2003, "A novel application of speckle interferometry for the measurement of strain distributions in semi-sweet biscuits," Meas. Sci. Technol. 14, 2027-2033.
Customers who find crumbled cookies in their packages often blame mishandling by the manufacturer, the shipping company or workers who load supermarket shelves. But that's not what Qasim Saleem, a doctoral student in mechanical engineering, and his colleagues discovered when they applied the complex and exalted field of physics to the mundane matter of cookies.
Saleem and his colleagues closely monitored the surface of cookies as they cooled to room temperature. Using a laser beam, they followed the tiny deformations that evolve as the cookie picks up moisture around the rim, which causes it to expand, while losing mois-ture at the center, which causes it to contract. The resulting strains can pull the cookie apart, or leave it more vulnerable to breakage before purchase.
"We now have a greater understanding of why biscuits develop cracks shortly after being baked," Saleem said. He said the discovery should help cookie manufacturers adjust the humidity and temperature of their production lines to minimize cracking.
