I would if I could, but there doesn't seem to be any way to do so (at least not in Lion).
Selecting a folder and checking info: No choice.
Selecting a folder and checking view options: No choice.
Creating new folder and checking view options: No choice.
I've been through everything which seems relevant, but no option to always open a folder in X view presents itself.
Is there some place else I should look?

EDIT: I just found something similar. Opening a folder and selecting the little "gear" menu beneath the folder's title provides a different Show View Options, which when selected comes up with a modified info panel, the top item of which is a checkbox "Always open in icon view". That's close to what you were suggesting. Back to my last question: Is there some place else I should look (to find your options)?
