Subject: [h-cost] Where is everyone hanging out these days?

For well over a year, I've been noticing a relative scarcity of posts on pretty 
much every costume-related mailing list and bulletin board of which I am a 
member (several dozen).  Many of these groups, including h-costume, were 
formerly very active. The general, noncostume sewing groups are an 
exception--they seem to be as active as ever.

I don't really consider Facebook a substitute because their message limits and 
format don't cater to either long messages or complicated interchanges.

Is costuming going out of style, as it were?  Is reenactment less popular? Are 
people traveling less to events because of the recession, therefore making 
fewer 
outfits for attending events, therefore not discussing those projects?  Is 
everyone hanging out on new lists I've never heard of?  Where ARE all the 
costumers hanging out, if not on h-costume?
