this (or any other) board cannot be all things to all people,
I agree with this and would add that like most things in life, it can't be all things to even a few people. At times this board has been a critical lifeline, and occasionally I can feel good about what I've been able to contribute. For me, and I'm sure for lots of people, there are also times when I feel like I have nothing to say, or I'm too mentally fatigued to participate or I'm angry or hurt by something said or not said by others. We can all opt in and out and in again. Hopefully we can do this in a manner that maximizes the benefits. I don't disagree with some of what name said, but I read into his post an inference that any detriments underminded the value of the board. If you hold this board to an impossible standard, it's bound to disappoint. ksvt
