Todd Actually, we're an Undead newsgroup, currently in hiding from the "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" newsgroup. But seriously, the solution is to make provokative posts to get the conversation started. Ask people's opinion on a controversial fan issue, such as convention locations, guests, frequency, etc. Heck, we got five or six rounds out of somebody's test ping. On the other hand, there can be too much of a good thing. I subscribe to a rather busy renaissance fair listserve which frequently receives whining posts about "unsubscribe me, you're choking my mailbox," from the clueless who can't figure out that administrative requests go to a different address.
