Thats a good observation, Will. 

As a "lurker" myself, I think that the reason  many of us are so quiet is
that our readings and thoughts on JDS are very personal, and most of us
on the list tend also to be rather private when it comes to personal
matters.  Also,It is difficult to convery much of what we wish we could
share in words.  I, for one, lurk around because I can't figure myself out
(or my fascination with Waker) and until I do I don't think I'd have much
intelligent to say.

I'll go back to being silent now,
