hi Michael- yes, i guess this is what i am asking,
maybe the list should transmutate into a blog format

i don't like the ego-centered blog format that is dependent on personality cult. i read a local one that got no fewer than 30,000 visitors in the last 3 days. hundreds of 'comments' per post. it is 'follow the leader' format.

but a simple format like audio asylum seems to work well, generates lots of interest, is thread organized, and is browser friendly:

http://www.audioasylum.com/audio/vinyl/bbs.html

but seriously, many of the listservs have become quieter and quieter. gives you the feeling people have less and less to say about more and more. while the blogs are the opposite: more to say about less.
