A user seeks permission from moderators to create a thread on quantum ethology, expressing uncertainty about its appropriateness for the forum. They attempted to contact moderator Greg Bernhardt but did not receive a response, leading to questions about whom else to ask. The discussion reveals that quantum ethology may intersect with philosophy, a topic the forum typically avoids. The moderators confirm they are currently deliberating the merits of such a thread, but the original inquiry is now closed. The outcome of the discussion remains uncertain regarding the thread's approval.

Few members need reminding what kind of force @Vanadium 50 was for the community and physics. A mentor for 5+ years and an annual award winner seemingly every other year. He has a top 10 post count...
