[Peter Finke]

I think that we should not forget that this site is more than a forum. (Anyway: there are four forums, and I admit that some are still more quiet than this. I should prefer more activity, too).
But the main point I have is that to large an extent this is an educational site. We get only few informations on the learning effect of the many texts that are to be found on the menue at the left side of our opening page. Although I should prefer – as Helene does – more forum activity, we may not forget that our aims are not simpy to be equated with that of aquaristic sites.
And by the way: activity is not quality. From our project’s point of view the emergence of a new enthusiast in the U.S. or anywhere in the world supporting our ambitious aims is in my view more valuable than most superficial wordings in some very active forums.
