[Parsi]

Eons ago BrainTalk was sponsored by MGH. But if I remember correctly they were not thrilled to have discussions other than those medically related be brought up. Finally JL broke the official connection. I believe it was when he switched to the vBulletin software (?). He did start selling merchandise to raise funds.

Sometime later I saw David's name. By that time I had more or less stopped coming so I was a bit confused about that.

I would suggest not ask a drug company. You may find that discussions of other drugs or alternatives would be sadly curtailed.

Getting a governance board would make everything more unwieldly in my opinion, not easier.

Instead of a set of mods trying to handle the entire BT communities, it is possible to set up mods for individual forums. Two for each forum should be more than enough. For the slower moving forums, mods could do double duty.

However, having someone(s) actually answer emails/PMs and direct them to the appropriate people would be highly desireable.
