Carolyn, just in case you haven't played with it yet, here's the site's
search page.
If you search the keyword "scansion" in thread titles only, showing results as threads rather than posts, you'll get as your result set a nice assortment of discussions.
We've had many, many bouts of the fisticuffs you refer to. The most interesting ones--the ones relevant to a particular context, poem, word, etc.--aren't here any more, alas, because threads on the workshop boards (as opposed to the discussion boards) are regularly pruned. (I remember the one Ann is talking about
)
Don't mind Michael, who tends to dig in his heels against doctrine about scansion. I'm at the opposite extreme; I love theory and linguistics, impractical though they often are.
