Don Bush's Intercom article: plan to create a topic on the Forum

[Ann L. Wiley Consultants Inc.]

Maurice will create a topic on the STC Forum for each of the articles in the 
February issue of Intercom, and I'll link to Tommy's post from the topic for 
Don Bush's article.

We gave up on creating forum topics for each article because the response 
was so minimal, but I'll renew my efforts to bring this discussion 
opportunity to the attention of people who might be able to participate. 
Thanks, Kathy, for the attempt to post because it gave me feedback from a 
customer that I could act on, to reactive the forum for Intercom 
discussions.

I did talk with Maurice about what editors do when an article is received 
that raises some questions. I'm concerned as an STC editor. We can refuse an 
article, of course, but we can also look to readers to write a response, 
which can be published in the letters to the editor (or comments on the 
blogs, http://stc-on.org). In this case, a response to the Intercom editor 
is very welcome.

Tommy - I was intrigued, so after 15 minutes of logging in, registering, and
reading the legalese on the disclaimer, then agreeing to it after not
actually reading it, I was disappointed that I cannot start a discussion
forum. I can only respond to your response to some other guy complaining
about not enough responses under the forum titled "Coming Soon - Discussions
of Intercom Articles." This doesn't fit my mood or my needs right now. If
you can start a forum, "Responses to Don Bush" would show us where to go and
feel less like an afterthought.
