greenspun.com : LUSENET : TimeBomb 2000 (Y2000) Forum Moderators : One Thread

This is in response to Email ideas passed from Chuck to Russ and it generated this kind of Forum idea. You have or will recieve the Email but thought that I would post it on the forum for speculation.

A Global Y2K Implications Forum

Chuck - Russ

Thanks for your "personal opinions" and as you can imagine my focus will be on Personal Prep. The problem with Y2K is its relation to scale. There is the individual, family, community, region, province - state, country, and international. Each level of the scale is relevant yet can confuse the issue when seen on a multi oriented forum. If we can order the TB Forum for individual, family, community, regional (this is where the real impact of Y2K will be felt) and State, Country, Internation focus on the other forum that is Created.

I am sure that Ed wanted the forum as a community preperation site, and it out grew it's original purpose in to a freeforall forum (which I quite enjoyed :o) But there are realities.

Oh! little brain wave, If we create a new forum it can be reached by pressing the publisher link so that it would be instantly available all the time for everybody. It would make it easy to get to each site. And it is easy to do, we can't have it linked to Eds site anymore. And there can be an mention of this on each of the "about" link pages as to the purpuse of each forum. Draw the pollies in the other forum and call them on the carpet. Anyone that comments on the global stuff can speculate so there is no worries about freaking out the newbies that would not care for such a forum.

Not only that we could look at the archive aspect of it. This is History we are watching. A global picture would be nice.

I think this would solve alot of problems and pruduce something usefull.

Count me in

Anyway some thoughts on the matter.
