The problem with "sending an email" to someone is that you lose the back 'n
forth sharing of ideas. If I send an email to STC, how do I know that it was
actually discussed? Other than receiving a "thank you for your input" email,
that's not really how a community grows, is it?

My two cents. I've not answered the "director of membership's" request to email
him directly... :)

So since YOU are listening, it'd be nice if there was a place where a nonmember
could communicate with members and share ideas and discuss. Unless, of course,
you plan on that place being right here! :)

around, even though it's been really quiet for a long while now. There's been
lots of twitter chatter lately about STC closing down it's forums (which used to
be open for non-members to read, at least) and instead are pointing people to a
members-only Ning group for "ideas." I guess your ideas only count if you are a
member! :)
