Vincent, I just agree so much. It's hard to say without sounding like a whiner - but I've felt humbled a lot at the Forge, and I'm no idiot; I know my gaming pretty well. Still, I don't feel as if there's much space for me to contribute.
I'm not sure if that will change. Right now, the theory is solid, and it doesn't feel like there's much more to do - over there, at least. The Big Model has been built; now what?
So I come to the Forge to learn and read, mostly.
This is not a criticism of anyone; it's just what happens when theory is being built. At some point, it's pretty much finished - new investigations must look to completely other fields, and time will show whether the theory survives and is still useful in fifty or a hundred years.
