I haven't participated as much as I would like. It is a combination of low reading time and lack of funds for books, so I only read sff I can borrow at the moment...

I do appreciate the work people put in here, but I find I am spending less and less time doing things myself. Meh. I have never been the most active member.

I think we should post more lists. Lists are easy, and they pull people into answering mode and debates. Rather shallow, of course, but that is the nature of lists, and most activity is better than no activity.
