I couldn't agree more.  Forums tend to get ignored far more than they 
get read, and only seem to work when you have extremely large audiences 
to pull from.  We don't have the luxury of pulling in discussion from 
thousands of people around the world.  We are just a couple of hundred 
people in Arizona, most of which just lurk and never say a thing.
I would be willing to bet if we had setup a forum instead of a mailing 
list, that AzGeocaching.com would probably not exist at all today, 
mainly due to apparent lack of interest.
