Please don't leave. I used to be on Arachne but it got not nice. I left. After many years I have come back. It isn't as much fun but if interesting people leave it will not get better and maybe fold. We need less drawn out fussing, more David emails and a bit of humor. Arachne is very dry now. And no one had to enter your survey. Please stay. Your survey is interesting even to,us in England.
