Lately it seems like there are not many built communties on the list, and 
questions don't get answered, so the value of the list becomes less.>>

I've noticed thia also.  My last question got no replies - it was a technical
one and needed the help from built communities regarding bank financing.  (On
the other hand I got several replies to the request prior to this one -
regarding bridge money.)  I know our group has done a lot of asking lately and
very little answering.  That is because we are so buried in the work of trying
to get this thing built!!  But I hope that once we are built and moved in, we
can be a good resource for those just starting out.  It does seem that there
was much more in the way of response from built groups when I first started on
this list.

Maybe everyone's just too darn busy??
