hand over? no, not going to happen.
It's going to evolve or it dies. I didn't post this without thinking this through. Why let it become like plastic.com that used to be a flurry of discussion to only now being barely a new thread a week and only a handful of responses? It's a pathetic shell of what it once was, I don't want TFP to suffer that same fate. I'd rather pull the plug myself than let it wither.
As for what a new member is to read or understand from this, is that there is a responsibility to participate in the community in some fashion other than just reading.

Five threads a day, 10 people posting about their tiny little lives, all thinking they have a kingdom all unto themselves. They forgot...its not land. Its the net. And its 10 people without a life other than their keyboard that remain...
this place needs to remain. Its lustfully intelligent. I crave interaction such as this and CD will get rewarded grandly for this introduction next time I see him in person....
