The Journal of Light Construction has a similar thread going, speculating a holiday slowdown, but as here a lot have been gone for a long time. I have to wonder if this age of Internet fora is breaking down as some have gone to Facebook where they can congregate like-minded people and keep others out, it seems political/religious differences create constant infighting, look at fire people on our old Bulletin Board and their sprinklers, where have they gone? It seems here that disability activists have taken over driving others away. On the other hand maybe it's the problems on an international scale, economics, war, racial strife, that have made these concerns pale in significance.

It's not just this forum, it seems like all fora have become platforms for activists and true believers, driving others away. Most fora, including this one, try to keep religion and politics out, but codes have become political, we have a Green Party and we have a Green Code, inspectors are enforcing political beliefs, that is disquieting to say the least.
 
Or just the normal ebb and flow of any medium, folks stagnate, lose interest, new blood comes in..........
