Shannon,
The Internet is not 25 years old, unless you invented it
before Al Gore. (:->)

Homeopathy Open List
is unpopular and flawed becasue Dr Tam implements rules
that do not apply to the writers, such as his views on what
is legal to say as a homeopath.
It's not that
simple! Similarly dormant are BeyondHomeopathy, and
also Homeolist, which is descendant of the very original
homeopathy list, Lyghtforce. I'm still a member of
each, and have been for what, anywhere from 25 years
(Homeolist / Lyghtforce) to whenever each of those others
was started. It wasn't overregulation that
silenced Beyond or Homeolist, and they are all still there,
ready to be brought back to life, for different purposes and
to different tastes.
It's just that everybody wants to be where
the people are, and that has become Minutus.
The problem is that he does not live where the members
live, is not responsible for what they say but does not see
that,
My understanding
is that he was put under legal threat of having the list
shut down. Maybe there was more to it than that, but
that was my understanding.
Anyway -- I always thought it would be great to
have each of those lists stake out its territory and draw
different groups to it, according to their tastes. We
(I am drawing this as the combination of Minutus and also
the now-sleeping Homeolist, Beyond, and Open, and probably
another one or two I'm forgetting) -- we have lost some
people and input that we had "in the early days"
that I found EXTREMELY valuable and interesting, but
non-classical and so they were chased away. If I knew
what list they might be hanging out at instead, I would
include that in my "library."
and does not know the rules
where we are, (which are other than as he has invented them)
and so it stifles discussion, members get tossed or their
well written emails are rejected, after they spent a lot of
time and effort and emotional energy writing them.
THAT is why there is no discussion there any more.
(None this year; 26 emails for all last year; less every
year.)
SO.... MInutus is appreciated becasue it DOES have some
leeway and allows some peripheral subjects that can lead to
core discussion with improved understanding. And writers are
not led by the nose or getting their emails tossed if they
ARE appropriate there.
Homeopaths are the wrong group to try to lead by the nose.
We work in an "individualized" scieince. ANd it
behooves us to also be individuals, - who better to
understand others' individual issues - despite that we
do use many common *principles*.
At least - That is how I experience it.
Namaste,
Irene
