Call for Themes

January will be the end of scheduled themes for the Poetry Fishbowl project. It's time to brainstorm some new themes! These are a few that I've jotted down earlier, ones that I've thought up or people have suggested, to give you an idea what kind of stuff might be suitable:

* Alternate History
* Dinosaurs
* Fringe Science Warning Signs
* Native American
* Pirates
* Reduce Reuse Recycle Restore

What other themes would you like to see me write about? What would you like to buy? Suggest them in a comment below this post.

Later on I'll collect the suggestions and do some polling. The most popular topics will be added to the schedule for future fishbowls. I'm going to run the first large poll with checkboxes so you can express interest in as many themes as you like. I will then either pick from the most popular ones, or use that information to pull out the favorite themes for a smaller poll to select the ones which will appear in upcoming fishbowls.

You can also help by linking to this post so that more people will see it. Everyone is welcome to suggest themes. Everyone will also be able to vote for them later; prompters and donors will get extra votes. If you link to the call for themes, you can reveal a verse in any open perk poem:
"The Arc of the Mental Universe"
"Everything That Blooms"
"In the Shade of the Mighty Oak"
"Let the Children Lead Us"
"Autumn's Palette"

Couldn't help but notice that you've suggested "Fringe Science Warning Signs" as being a suitable topic.
Just yesterday I came across something by the title of "out-of-place artifacts".
Out-of-place artifacts is what archeologists and scientists call things that turn up where they are absolutely not supposed to be, things that carbon-date to impossibly ancient ages, and things they can't figure out how our ancestors made given their "primitive technology".
Some interesting little video's pop up when you do a search on youtube with that term--just thought you might want to know.

That would dovetail with the Time Towers in particular -- the Antikythera Device, the Baghdad Battery, etc.
