[medit-plants] Re: the medit-plants email forum

Sean -

I agree with many of the responses that email is preferred.  I continue to find the emails informative and useful.  I don’t use FB and would agree that you should discontinue that, especially if it is a lot of effort to maintain it.

Just an FYI ...

There are almost 60 people still subscribed to this forum. There has been some recent renewed interest (a couple of new subscribers).

I'm quite frustrated with managing the Facebook group that grew from the original medit-plants forum - FB keeps changing things, seems to have a specific agenda that doesn't support the group, and there has not been enough people stepping forward to help admin.

I'm tired.  And don't like contributing (through FB use) to one of the wealthiest men on the planet.

Some people in the FB group have asked if there is a forum to use instead - I pointed out that this one does still exist.

To those of you still subscribed here: Do you welcome the VERY occasional email from the forum?  Or would you choose to leave if it became more active? (I happened to find out from one of our members that he had his email interface delete medit-plants messages! I did him the favor of removing him from the list).  Should I look into deleting medit-plants entirely?

Don't regret anything about starting this back in the mid-1990s - it's been a very enriching experience, and I met many wonderful people!  I also don't mind keeping medit-plants going - just looking to 'lighten my load' a bit with the various internet things I've created over the years.
