I can assure you that there are many leading players
in the group. Some choose to post, most remain anonymous
and just lurk, often subscribing to the digest. Often
the decision to remain anonymous is to prevent a barrage
of email heading their way and also their (understandable?)
fear of being misunderstood/misquoted. Jimmy B and a few
others take the risk and stick their neck out, which is
great!
As I have said before, be aware that what you are saying is
being read by a very wide audience!
It's good that the debacle over Jimmy and Pat is now
clearing up, Zeek did some great "misunderstanding control",
for which I think we are all grateful.

I think what we are all missing is the fact we don't know who is out
there reading. Great artist like Mr. Bruno may never post again, we
will miss out on some wonderful insights. Are we sure Pat Metheny
or
Chuck Loeb or John Pizzarelli aren't members, and they never post,
it's possible. What great bits of information we could get from
them too. But, would they want to post after seeing the way Mr.
Bruno was treated, food for thought.
