Maybe the lack of participation of others is also due to a lack of interest in
the subjects, along with being unfamiliar with the material. The members of a
Lodge that have been studying the material since they were 12 (and are now 81),
can really roll over the first-timers. I think the chat list for those of us
who haven't attained highbrow status is a good idea, but I also suggest you
throw out a topic and see what happens. I was intimidated when I started on
this list in March. Now, look at me . . . I can't shut up.
