By far most dancers don't use computers effectively or at all.

The point of the post was not for the one's that are there, rather
suggestions from those who got there as to what resources where useful
to them in the process.

By far, most of what is on the web is crap.  The point of such lists is
to filter these choices down to a manageble level for those comming in.

I get a lot a positive e-mail about my project as well as ~ 50,000
accesses a month.  But your right, if the 200 or 300 people that read
these dance newsgroups don't respond to a question then i should
certainly abandon all hope.
