Serious Question about the list...

I'm certainly not among "the best LiveCoders" or "in the know" but I
prefer the mailing list because of TIME. The topics and issue that
affect LC developers come to me (via email) and I can delete, skim,
archive, or read as I see fit faster than it would take me to select the
forum from a bookmark and read through the topics. Put simply, the
mailing list saves me time in keeping up with LC development issues. Of
course in that context, I do pay more attention to the Developer List
than the LC Use List, but both let me know of issues (and solutions)
other people discover that may affect projects I am working on.

Forums have so many advantages over mailing lists - they're easier to read, they're easier to search, you can access them from anywhere, I could keep going.  I'm just curious as to why the best LiveCoders spend more time here than in the forums? There are people who participate in both - I see Jacque and Klaus in there all the time and I probably owe Klaus a case of beer at this point...
