Yes, I can understand the strength of that....

It can be like a "private journal" being written by more than one person, perhaps.... :) It seems like a more powerful concept than just your standard private journal.... I think your use of a forum to do that is very creative!

Yes, not everything might be best for public discussion sometimes....

However, hopefully we're trying to make this a friendly place.... I want to be honest, I wish we had more women contributors. Women are a HUGE part of entrepreneurship, and an increasing part of the future of the internet.... And without enough women, a place is unbalanced....

It isn't always easy, but I hope we can make this a very friendly place for both women and men, and hopefully we can get a balance happening.... Women are VERY VERY welcome at Sowpub....

Sandy.... you may not realize it, but I was *including* you as one of the very talented people who sometimes visit here....

You're quite a creative person, Sandy. Even just the new "private journal" use you've developed for a discussion board shows that! I never even thought of doing that.... I think it shows great creativity. :) And I also believe you are quite courageous, because speaking out on various things takes a certain amount of courage, which you have.... I respect and admire that.... :)

So... I hope I haven't embarassed you at all, but you are one of the talented people who have posted here, and I'm very grateful....

Thank you too, Sandy.... :)
