About all I can say is, "I agree".  It can be demoralizing to put time
into a project that no one around you appreciates or understands,
then when you finally show it to the other 'crazies' like you all
you hear is the crickets.  Or worse, someone tells you it will be a
waste of time or that it is too easy to bother before you even begin.
And the funny thing is, some of the worst offenders in the latter case
are some of the biggest talkers when it comes to their own projects...

Anyway, let's not start a fight -- let's just try to be better about
acknowledging each other's interests and accomplishments.
