I would say that Lee is right on track as far as the fusebox community.
These people are the most helpful and intuative people that I have come in
contact with in a online technical community. To get the same amount of
value out of cftalk you have to wade through hundreds of emails a day, most
of which are far away from the area you are looking for. I was on that list
for 2 days, I simply didnt have the time to even read all the subject
headers. Anyways, when you are a newbie to the methodology this list is VERY
kind to you. No where else have I seen the tolerance that goes on here, not
once have I read RTFM!! on this list. Try to find that on another list that
houses the talent that resides here.

Lee,
I would most definitely disagree. Fusebox was quite useful to me when all I
knew of it was the white paper... at that point, I didn't know or care if
five people or five thousand were using it. Inspired ideas are inspired
ideas.

That definitely isn't obvious to me. There are several Very Smart People in
the Fusebox community, but then again, there are even more outside of it...
if all I wanted was a vast pool of knowledge and experience, I'd hang out on
CFTalk and follow Watts and Forta around. [g]
