Leaving the message board may be a good move for some. Some have already left -- many are & will be missed. The bottom line is....do you find information here that will help your family during the recruiting process? Or...is it a hobby/entertainment for you? I know many get tired of the....stuff (there's that word again)....but I think I'll hang around, waiting for people to come to their senses. At least for a few more years!
