I'll admit I'm feeling like some others here do. Tim has always played an
important role here on Lugnet but, a partial quote, "Lugnet is a somewhat
compartamentalized RTL".
There are still times when I find it worth posting something (like the
baseplate question on .general) but more and more often I see myself asking
"Is this really worth posting?" More often than not the answer is "No."
because someone else already has or it's not "headline news" (pardon me
CNN).
Is lugnet too big? Are we getting more from the LTC/LUG's many of us are
now part of than lugnet? Maybe it's an "ain't what is used ta be" sort of
thing. I honestly don't know the answer.
For the heck of it, I decided to go back to this date: March 9, 1999.
