    An informative discussion

    Recently there was long thread about the BCA. I can now post possible answers to some of the questions, such as "Why is the BCA still raising membership prices when there is a significant amount still left in its coffers?"

Awesome.

Foramen doing as He does in the tome of Beeri's son, on National Coming Out Day for us, or Malala Day for US.

Yes, sorry but I'm not very experienced in cryptic crosswords so perhaps my clue was a little unorthodox.
Foramen is Latin for hole
Beeri is a biblical character whose son is Hosea
Verse 11, chapter 10 (11/10) of Hosea says:
They shall walk after the LORD: he shall roar like a lion: when he shall roar, then the children shall come trembling from the west.
11/10 in the UK is 11th of October, which is National Coming Out Day
11/10 in the US is 10th November, which is Malala Day.
