Who's here?
 

I see that someone is here, but your name doesn't show. Wanna talk?

Mamafigure:

I'm from the Braintalk1 Parkinson's forum. It's great to "hear a familiar voice" again. I wish that I had had the email address of at least one other member of the old forum; I coudn't talk to anyone!

I'm glad I finally found this place. I am concerned about John Lester, though; not responding to emails and not updating the message page isn't like him. Does anyone have any current knowledge of JL?

How does one start a new forum for Parkinson's?

The admin has to create new forums. I'm sure if asked nicely he/she would be willing to put in a new forum for Parkinsons ;)

I have the feeling that John is working so hard that he hasn't had the time to respond to anyone. This blow-out sounds like it must have involved a lot of software and hardware.

If I remember right, not only has John spent all this time working on the forum, but he has used his own resources.

I wouldn't be surprised if the final answer as to the return of the forum as it was will be a slow process that involves patience on all sides, as it looks like everything must have been wiped out and that sounds like money. Asking for that kind of money involves grants and/or getting approved by a long list written on red tape.

I really don't know anything, this is just my perception.

I am from the PD and neuro board. In its absence, lets just meet in one of the more general forums and gather others there.

Actually the biggest hold up is that Mr. Lester is traveling for most of August. The crash really did come at the worst possible time. He told me about 3 days before that moderator retreat thingy that he was going to be gone most of August (I asked about updating).

I should've went to SF to meet him (only a hour away)...but figured since I wasn't a moderator that probably wouldn't have been a good idea.

Great to see some help/life still..
 

Some alternative forums have given BT up for GONE!

Can someone get to John or another to update the note dated 7/20? Even a new date would avoid negative speculations.
