Forum participation seems to wax and wane. Unless there are new pieces to talk about, upcoming events, lighthouse trips scheduled or completed things tend to slow down. Sometimes it's nice to get a little breather. Gives us a chance to do some other things. Not a problem, imo.

One thing I can't figure out. Why do so many people register and never post? With the old format you didn't need to register just to read. Have things changed with the new software that you now must register to read?
