It seems logical that newcomers or oldcomers would then also follow familar members... it is not so much of a "choice" at this point.
I appreciate wanting to inform ppl know where you are, ESPECTIALLY in light of the fact that Braintalk did not provide this information while down, so I feel it right that other members we know should be informed of this place. For that reason alone.

Dear Waves,
I understand the issues and I think I understand what you are saying.
I don't think about the issues too much. I'm pretty sure that that is a sincere check of my mindset. It doesn't matter to me.
This site has been operating since the end of August and had people here and posting when I found them in the 3rd week of Sept.
Yes, I have given this link to others asking about us on BrainTalk.
It was a practical matter mostlly -- so that they could find us.
If someone wants to post about bipolar, there are other boards. But if people on BT are looking for their group, they could know where to find us.
If one were to do a survey of other groups, one would find that some are keeping a presence on both boards for now, some have moved back to BT and others are probably staying here. Others are probably scattered or posting on a third site that was up in July.
I just want to stay were the group is.
Your post is elegant and I thought it deserved a response. I hope I was adequate.
Nice to see you. I hope you are finding ways to be you and to make the apt. work for you.
