You haven't provided enough information to stimulate a discussion. You should remedy this so your thread doesn't locked or deleted.

You need to explain what, exactly, you wish to discuss.

Can you say Los Angeles and Canada in the same sentence?

The question in the thread title and link in the OP are perfectly sufficient to pinpoint the topic of discussion, and to generate a good discussion.

Yes, I think the tributes are a bit overrated, more along the lines idol worship than a simple tribute to people who've managed to find, if not create, a really profitable niche.

Sure, one can always assume and often hit the mark. However, the rules state:

Please clearly state what you wish to discuss. In general, one should attempt to flesh out questions and arguments adequately enough that readers will have a good understanding of the issue.

This way, no assumptions are made and threads have a clearly defined direction. It also probably helps when determining what posts are considered off-topic.
