Yes.
Why don't you and Larry both agree to not post to this newsgroup for at
least two weeks? Further, perhaps you could both agree to post only the
most agreeable posts elsewhere, and not to respond to each other's posts for
at least two weeks also.

BTW, as to rules all I can say is that we don't need rules if everyone can
agree up front to comport themselves like some reasonable facsimile of a
gentleperson. And I further observe that it would seem likely that even if
we had such rules for off-topic.debate that either you or Larry would be the
most likely persons to violate those rules -- and I make this observation
based upon the fact that neither of you appear to be able to exert any
self-control in this forum.
Recipe for good debates in the future (Attn: Larry P. and Scott A.):
Pour a raw egg on your head. Have a good laugh about it. Go away for two
weeks. And then come back the better for it in a fortnight.
If you get more creative, the egg can be used to hold your hair in some
pretty interesting configurations (i.e. Mohawk, bouffant, Elvis-curl, etc.)

I was sure this had been proposed before, but I could not find anything when I looked. Any (...) (23 years ago, 23-Oct-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
