        Re: My Stance —Christopher Lindsey
     (...) I empathize with you completely. When I came to LUGNET in March I also had a lot of ideas that I was all excited about, and most of the time I was told that something was already in the works, there wasn't any interest, or whatever.

        Re: My Stance —Eric Joslin
     (...) Matt, You're going to take this as some kind of slam, or some kind of flame, but it's not intended as one, really. Try to keep that in mind as you read it.

     (...) Ah. Well, my point stands (as does yours)- you weren't greeted with showers of roses and gold just because you stated your intentions for the site.
