Default Why do you participate (or lurk) in this group?

For the most part a lurk.

Why?

* I'm mostly a flat woodworker and frankly, I expect that I will always
spend the bulk of my shop time doing rectilinear work. Consequently, I will
probably never get really good at turning. I need all the help I can get.

* The quality of information available here is excellent.

* The signal to noise ratio is excellent.

* I prefer a newsgroup/newsreader over web-based forms, and I abhor using
Google's interface to news.

There are a fair number of regulars in this group, as many if not more
drop ins looking for answers to What, Where and How, and a whole
bunch of lurkers - who hopefully will become participants.

So how'd you get here, why, and what's missing?
