Howdy all-
I’ll raise my hand to the idea of some type of PM system on the site -and also agree with billd that spambots love emails addresses sent “in the clear”. A PM system would give the option of messaging between members, and if they choose to share email at that point, it’s safer.
That said, I’d like to bring up another topic – membership dues.
When I found this site several months ago I was awed at the quantity and quality of the information here. From Rick and Dr. J’s vid’s, to the Virtual Dr., to the tools- everything was well researched, presented in a direct manner and, as importantly, along with a healthy dose of humor. I was amazed that a site of this quality was free ( I actually scoured the site looking for a way to contribute and/or support it).
Rick, Ava, and family, Dr. J. and his family seem to be not just hosting the site (in a social, not IT sense), as well as supporting it. Patrick, Janice, and all the experts may donate their time and expertise, but support staff, hosting service (this is the IT version), bandwidth, moderating, maintenance, and a thousand other things -like forum support- take time…and $$$’s (Canadian, US, etc…pick your monetary preference). Maybe it’s time for a discussion about contributing to something we all use (God, I sound like my PBS/NPR station fund-drive!).
Who knows- this could go viral! We could be so successful that the site could fund a sequel to ADD & Loving It! Maybe Patrick also has a co-morbidity he’s dying to share, once he discovers it- in the course of making the film. This could be huge!
We could all be invited to the premier!
Uhm…stepping away from the keyboard now…
Gary -who’s happy to hear from others at gn_holt at that loud place (sounds like ya – who?) dot com. Warning – I send all spam-bots straight to Sarah Palins website…
