Bowling: the questions, the topics, the discussion, the debates

So, I am a member of a few Bowling forums, and there have been some thought provoking posts made over the years that I've wanted to reply to, and often have.  But when posting on a forum, sometimes by the time I've got my thoughts together - people have moved on to something else.  I try to be considerate and not post often due to the fact that I normally post not just thoughts, but quite often essays - which is one of the main reasons I'm not on Twitter - 140 characters is just not enough.  So, in the interest of getting my thoughts out there for various subjects within the overarching realm of Bowling, I'm going to post my full responses here.

Some of the questions/topics that will be shared:

1. Why Bowling?
2. Why not get coaching?
3. What is perfection?
4. Technology vs technique
5. USBC and PBA, moving forward/backward/running in place?
6. Your local Bowling Establishment and you
7. Youth/High School/College Bowling
8. The Myth/Moans behind Bowling Integrity
9. What is the product called Bowling?
10. Why compare/contrast Tennis, Golf and Bowling, why not with Nascar? http://forum.bowlingchat.net/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=5014
11. Chase the Experience
12. Bowling Culture both at the lanes and away from the lanes
13. Challenges in Growing the Sport at the Grassroots Level- http://forum.bowlingchat.net/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=3611
14. "The Reasons Bowling is Going Downhill" (and why bowlers love to gripe about it)
15. "Bowling Alone" and Gen X'ers
16. The huge number of State of Bowling posts/interviews from Coaches and/or Players.
17. Sport for fun vs. working at Sport
18. Boutique Bowling versus Traditional Lanes
19. I have a dream - and if I could make it so . . . http://forum.bowlingchat.net/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=6209
20. Consolidation both in bowling and outside of bowling
21. "It's what I've always done"
22. Equipment collection specialists explained:  (aka: Ball Ho and proud of it)
23. The Pain vs the Process of 'Matching Up'
24. What is missing in Bowling Ed?
25. Modern vs. Traditionalist in bowling - Why do we need both?

I'm sure there are/will be more as time goes on, but that's a good start.  I'd love to say I'll start with #1 and work my way down, but I think it will be more of a logical unfolding (I hope) that will develop.  Until then.
