The newsgroups are the most effective process. IMHO, stay
here. Forums, Yahoo Groups, whatever, are just bad public

Vbulletin stuff is good. Unfortunately, Usenet is beyond the capability of
most internet users. Personally, I made my first usenet post in 1992,
however I am quite certain my question will be answered up to 1000 percent
faster on a forum like reef central.

Yes, usenet is better, however a small fraction of the total marine hobbiest
uses it or even knows about it.
