Has Richard thought about letting somebody else maintain it and keep it up? Would you by chance have Richards email address or way to get a hold of him? It was a great site and a good many people used it.

Thanks.

AlanK - thanks for this link. It answered a few questions. I look foward to see what Richard does.

I think one of the reasons readership dropped off was because it was down so often. It might get more readership if word got around that it was up and stable.

I hiked with Richard last week and asked about his forum. I don't think that the problem was readership. He needs to do some work to put it on a more reliable server. He plans to do that when he has time. He may put it up as just an archive. He definitely appreciates that there is a lot of valuable information on the Board and wants to keep it available.
