Hi all,

I am here to say that I think some of us lurk because by the time we get
to reading our emails it has ran the gamut and someone has already said
what we may think. Many times I have read the emails later in the day
and thought about answering but my thoughts have already been addressed.
Maybe not exactly but close enough that responding would waste
everyone's time. I love this forum and think it value is immeasurable.

I've been a member in this forum for a number of years even though I'm
not a designer. I'm a production engineer and work out on the
manufacturing floor. I'm subscribed to four IPC forums, DesignerCouncil,
TechNet, LeadFree, and EnviroNet
 
I'm subscribed to the designer council and read every email just to see
if I can learn something about why you guys do the things you do to make
my life miserable (GRIN). Just kidding...
 
Seriously, I hope to learn something when I read posts from this forum.
If I can contribute, I do. Most of the stuff that's talked about is over
my head a lot of the time. I secretly would like to become a designer
one day, shhh...don't tell anybody. Maybe sometime in the future when I
get tired of working on the manufacturing floor.

Subject: Re: [DC] Current vs. Temperature (IPC vs. PCBTEMP)

Jack, 

You know the funniest thing about this forum is... there are over 500
people
signed up in this forum... look at the message I get back when I post...


"Your message dated Thu, 10 May 2007 10:12:36 -0700 with subject "Re:
Current vs. Temperature (IPC vs. PCBTEMP)"  has been successfully
distributed to the DesignerCouncil list (504 recipients)."


Now how come I only see posts by less than 10 people on this thing? 

I think we have a lot of 'lurkers'... and they could contribute to the
conversation.... But they don't for some reason... why is that? 
I would like to see a roll call of who finds this forum useful and would
ask
that they voice their opinions more... good dialog and discussion is
what
makes this organization a worthwhile thing to belong to... Who are you
and
what makes this organization valuable to you? The whole concept here is
to
work together to improve the lot of designers... their education, and
prestige in the industry... and hopefully we improve the lives of the
manufacturers by making better informed design decisions... that make
the
boards more manufacturable and testable. 

I would like to hear some other opinions besides the few that are brave
enough to speak them... It's your designers council... use it to the
benefit
of your profession... make a difference... be a part of the solutions...
etc... 

Am I wrong?
