A forum that anyone can read, but only those invited can post.

I think that this is a good idea as well. But everybody has a different outlook. Whether it be emotional or rational. How do you propose that we set those two differences aside? That would be the first solution to make this work.
Sorry, I don't mean to be a spoilsport.

And what would be the criteria to be "invited"?

So instead of everyone discussing these things over here you are proposing that we create a forum over there where only the "best and the brightest" are allowed to participate?
Who are these "best and brightest" by the way?

The difference is, I think we can go farther.
Instead of reading through 30 pages of debate, we can go straight to the solution.
Have an issue with that solution?
Debate it. Please.
But a place where ideas can be distilled, where just the solutions can be brought forward, would (I think) be a very popular forum.

And I suppose you think you're among the best and the brightest!? J/K Beez. Seriously. J/K.
I think it's an idea that could work, actually. A forum that focuses on solutions, AFTER the problems have been thoroughly run through debate, and the (somewhat) dialectical process. Hmmmm. That could get interesting.
Someone mentioned Mensa. The problem with Mensa is, anyone with an above average IQ can be a member. They need more requirements than that. I wouldn't to belong to any organization that would have me as a member.
