Do we truely need to re-hash this one for the hundredth f'in time?  I'm 
sure if people spent half a brain cell and searched the archives for the 
word "forum" they would find hundreds and hundreds of posts regarding 
them.  And I'm sure if people took the time to read some of the posts, 
like the ones from say. . .  "Isaac Richards" they would find that he 
has said NO to a forum, no to a forum to mailing list gateway, and 
quoting Isaac "And I, for one, absolutely hate web-based forums. I will 
not officially support one."

Here are all the articles from Isaac in regards to a forum:
