Tom,
The biofuel list is by far the best list that I encountered, not only for biofuels, but also for general energy discussions. I think that this is natural, if you really read through the JTF and its very worthy goals. Why is it the best and have no match, - A clear vision and excellent management by Keith. It has been expressed by so many lately, so I have not much to add. - A very good and qualified membership and truly international, with no dominating nationality. It is very rare and difficult to create this and it is an achievement that Keith have all the rights to be proud of. - It is the list of JTF and not a list of a biofuel organization. It is a list for furthering goals for people and not an organization or corporation. The list is for the members and not one or more special interests. It is a vibrant and living mirror of people and what concern them in questions of life and its sustainability. Of course it is mostly biofuel because it represent all of it. I gone through a few list to try to find similar good discussion groups in different fields, that I could recommend to the visitors on my web site. It is a few good ones, I have not found any with the membership profile as the biofuel list. On some you only have to say hello, to end up in a discussion about nuclear power, which seem to be the answer to everything from composting toilets to home design. I have been told that I am ignorant and bad engineer, because my English is bad and not my native language, to be a good engineer you have to be American, with perfect spelling and grammar. If I am not interested in a subject on biofuel list, I do not read the mails and delete them, it is not my goal to have people to only discuss what I am interested in. To try to limit the communication on the biofuel list or have views about its right to existence is not constructive. If you look at the Internet situation today, were more than 80% of a normal persons emails are SPAM, I think that it is not fruitful or serve nothing to do topic limitations on the biofuel list.
