There is a better one. > **[Straight Dopers | Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/groups/2408464343/)** > > A group for fans of The Straight Dope message board and Cecil Adam's The Straight Dope column. If you are a member of the SDMB and want to join this Facebook group, and your profile is completely... It goes by ‘Straight Dopers’ and is semi-official. ---
