> I just made a quick count and there have only been 14 posts on this forum this month. Where is everybody? We used to have several good discussions going at once. Most of my favorite posters have disappeared. I even find myself checking in to other sites before I go to RinkWorks. I never used to do that.

Seems to me this thing goes in cycles, and we happen to be at the bottom of a down cycle right now. I bet a lot of the posters you were talking about are still here, just lurking. Just hang in there, and it'll come back up. Kind of like the stock market.

The other possiblity is that we've already discussed everything worth discussing, so there's no point in posting any more. But do you really think that's likely?
