I once emailed lew back and forth, for quite a while asking if he had a forum for lewrockwell.com. he kept telling me the reasons why they couldn’t really afford it. Then he finally mentioned these forums.
I didn’t know these forums existed at the time. This is basically the forum for lewrockwell.com. He should link these forums on the lewrockwell.com homepage.
Just sayin, it would bring bigger traffic here and amplify both sites.
It would be good for us, the posters here, and it would be good for many of his readers, but I predict it will never happen. It would look amateurish if his website linked to a message board of another website. Who the hell does that? Not a site which wants to maximize its air of professionalism and seriousness for sure.
I was being halfway facetious, SkepticalMetal, but I was referring to an article that William (vive la insurrection) linked to some months ago where the authors speculated that there was a time within human memory that Earth did not have a natural satellite. Lew seems to feel like his audience enjoys being exposed to “speculative” theories, and William vents about this from time to time.
Thats what I was going for. I basically assumed that everyone here would think it was a joke and half the people would remember some thread that no one remembers. Oh the embarassment of being a failure at internet humour. I am numb to you ten years now.
Internet discussion is challenging. Instead of the different moods expressed through the voice, the hand movements, the facial expressions and the body language, you have cold, dull, bleak, and pale text, so formal in it’s inhuman demeanor.
And all I have is this steve jobs masterpiece no keyboard doesnt interface with the boards worth a crap, hahaha. Thats why you guys dont get images or hyperlinks or sometimes even good spelling from me. This keyboard clicks but doesnt put the letter down when you touch it for less than .04 s.
“It would look amateurish if his website linked to a message board of another website.”
Both websites were started by Lew Rockwell. Both websites have pretty much the exact same material on them. Both websites are about political subjects, speficially free markets. They are almost the same website. Most who goto lewrockwell.com also goto mises.org. If they don’t know about both, they probably would goto both if they found out about both.
