I wish to ammend my earlier post. I stand by those remarks with respect to the part of the population of this board that takes part in the posting.

There is another part of the population of this board I had overlooked, not being a member myself; they are known as guests. Those lurkers are certainly part of the family, but demonstrate no desire to be heard here. I can only guess about the values they share. Perhaps they're shy, or lack confidence in their opinions, or maybe they agree so completely with the posts that nothing further need be said. Just guesses, all.

But I overlooked them before and now I include them. Why are they here, what values they hold, much less share can only be know in the past tense, when they post and tell us, thereby saying goodbye to the mysterious passivity of the land of the lurkers.
