[Greasemonkey] testing

Yeah. I sent email to "the main people" about it several days ago,
but maybe they can't do anything. It's probably the server, and/or
the EXTREMELY outdated mail list software they are using. (circa pre-2000)

We REALLY need to switch to a discussion forum format.
Especially for the non-techy types, who usually balk at mail lists.
They wouldn't care about or understand 99.9% of the discussion anyway.
Whereas in a forum, we could have several sections for all the
different types of users and areas of discussion.

Mail Lists are "old-style" anyway, like News Groups, which is all
they had back in the Old Daze when there was no such thing as
web discussion forums. Which work very nice now. Even PHPBB.
And they are always absolutely immediate, which is nice. (no propagation 
delays)

Maybe I'll build one and see if "they will come." (but it doesn't really
make a lot of sense to have the discussions fragmented 'here and there' --
it really should be an 'all or nothing' decision by 'the powers that be')

(hell, most forums now-days have a 'notify me by email when people reply
to posts in this thread' option, so that should satisfy anyone who
"doesn't like discussion forums", +/-; --- it's better than nothing)
