I appreciate the "Whatever" forum on IAM, hosted by Shannon, because it is a catch-all for some of the most interesting, heated, and engaging discussion on the entire site. The comments may or may not have to do with body modification at any given moment... but they're always worth reading. Whether commenting on news, technology, BME updates, Shannon's entries, or anything else, this forum draws tons of IAM members to comment, discuss, argue, and share.

The whole techno scene (or rave scene as some may know it) and body art are, to me, inseparable. To have people on IAM from around the world discussing techno - heaven online.

I am quite happy with the new IAM.Ethics forum that I took over from Sean Philips. It (including the original) has very intelligent conversation regarding possible problems faced by modification professionals.
