Sigh..... Why chattering classes have nothing to say

The Observer | UK News | Why chattering classes have nothing to say: "The art of conversation is dead but the artistry of chatter is thriving, with Britons overwhelmingly admitting they rarely talk about anything more serious than traffic and television.
According to a survey of more than 2,000 adults, almost two-thirds of us admit to indulging in shallow chit-chat at the expense of weighty dialogue - even though we secretly long for more meaningful exchanges. "

What's a bloke to do to get some real discourse on this planet?
