Italiangold,
I know how you feel. I joined this community a little over a month ago thinking it would be something more than it seems to be now, and I've felt a bit of that 'noob angst' since then. Seems most of the activity has moved over to the I-I pod at Zaadz. But I keep posting and reading anyway, hoping that things might get rolling again.
On the other hand, it does strike me as just a little bit ironic that I would expect people to be more long-winded about that great Silence..
=P
Here's to hoping,
K
