I mean, feel ignored but don't get your feelings hurt about it. Indiana is a brother with a good heart who has dreams of fixing the LCs. I personally think he is wasting his time, but he might think I waste my time, too. He has to follow his own conscience and we by convention allow him that freedom here.
I believe Igzy's comments here are fairly accurate. Several years ago, after numerous forum debates, I encouraged him to do what he does best, and not to get bogged down with the daily banter of forum debate. I'm not sure if he actually took my suggestion, but it seems so.

Indiana (Steve Isitt) has benefited all of us ex-members with his research and networking with many former members, including well-respected former leaders. In this regard, he understands the Recovery probably as well as any. His ability to document our history has been tremendously informative. I consider him to be like the "Ken Burns" of the LCM in the US.

As far as his lack of participation on the forum goes, there are many others who this forum as a clearinghouse for their writings. I think this mix of historical accounts and daily feedback is what makes this forum so beneficial.
