The trouble is - all us monomaniacs followed the Forum, and nobody joined us.
Are they trying to tell us something?
'Here's a lovely forum to have your discussions in', then they tiptoe away
quietly and have a great party somewhere else.

Is that a projection? I see no vanity areas, only an intelligent and
generally successful attempt to divide it into areas of interest. For
some, the mechanics of the instrument are a consuming passion. I am not
one of these, but I am grateful that there are such people because
without them no pipe music would enter the world. For me, the music
itself is a consuming passion, and I am disappointed that my favorite
[sic] forum, Peacock's Parlour, is not more widely visited and used.
But that is how it is, you can't hit people over the head with it, and
no-one's hitting me over the head about reed-making and key-pads.
