I think the role of moderator was never intended to be one of responsibility for instruction and critique. That happened rather by default and, dare I suggest, generosity in wanting to get the Forum off to a sound start.

This can't be a communal effort without participation by the community. It's too often like a barn raising at which only 12 of the promised 56 workers showed up.

But if the barn isn't a piece of art, about 44, at least, will make notes and let the 12 know of their blueprint for changes.

The 12 are becoming weary.
