Since the decision was made to limit this forum to CC/ CC leaders and/or members, most of us who post our remarks could be considered regular participants. I have also noticed a significant drop in participation over the last few months. Could it be lack of interest? I certainly hope not. On the other hand, what exactly is the point of this forum? I still don’t get it! We ask the questions, make our propositions, and argue in defense or against them… but all among ourselves. Besides, this form of communication is excruciatingly slow and inefficient. By the time we just begin to make our point, the thread looses its dynamic and people move on to something else. Could someone please explain it all to me?
