That's a very deep and true statement you made. The only other thing I would add is if there are people who just "lurk" now instead of positing, why is that? Is it because of the "script kiddies" and their annoying posts, or for other reasons. Maybe there are even more deeper answers than anything we can think of, does anyone care to share?

But I'll share in the holding of hands to remembers those who no longer post, and even for those who have been banned!
