You're right to rise these points.  "But"... it sounds like "our list is
dying".
Which is wrong.
I am one of those lurkers. I've been in this list for several years now and
I still learn a lot just reading...
The fact is people have families, jobs, some may be shocked by all those
kyuyo(s) and need time to "recover"...
Please excuse my lack of english vocabulary but I do think the problem is
"conjoncturel" not "structurel".

Of course, lots of forum attract people (like me...) because they allow to
express in your own language.
It's not the end of the Sumo Mailing List.
Listers will continue to write, to read, to shout, to send balls of fire (by
the way I don't see Asashoryu wining this basho...)
