I joined this listerve just a few weeks ago - but I would love to have
more discussion going on - it really hasn't been on my radar screen
since joining- in other words yes.

Dear HealthLit members,

I am feeling downright guilty about the fact that the list has been so
quiet for so long, as I have done nothing to stimulate it.  On the other
hand, there is nothing wrong with a quiet period if that's just the way
the members like it for the time being.

I'll have some more time than usual in the next few weeks, and I could
arrange for a guest speaker, or offer any one of a number of other
things, to liven up our quiet spell.

On the other hand, I don't want to do this if there will be little
response.  

So I need some encouragement.  This is a reality check.  Please post
comments about how you feel the list is doing lately.  I need your
guidance.  If there isn't much response, I'll leave the list alone.
Many thanks.
