Chitchat, small talk, cocktail party buzz and polite social coversation versus serious discussion was the distinction I had in mind.

While I do believe there is an absolute truth, it isn't as easy to find as you seem to imply. Not everything is black or white, good or bad, [b] right or wrong

Yep--just 2 weeks ago I was in Lancaster PA for the WBC (formerly AvalonCon Game Convention).
