[Ravensfort] Beta and Gamma sites

The idea has been talked about several times in the past.
Seems like a good suggestion,
but there are a couple of reasons that
people don't warm to it
and so it never moves forward.
Not everyone will be able to connect.
That's killer right there.
Even if you do connect, there ends up being lots of time
just sitting and not interacting and falling asleep.
Plus outside distractions at someone's location.
"Daddy's busy right now honey.
Why don't you play with the stuffed animals
and put the drum away for a while...
Sorry, I'll be right back.
Ok, where were we ?"
My personal objection is that it encourages us not to gather.
The ONLY reason that I still play in the SCA is social intercourse.
It gives me an excuse to see my friends.
Communication through wires is like a kiss through a screen door.
Very nice, but it could be so much more.
I fully expect that at some point in the future
when we all have Orwell's telescreens installed in every room
our meetings will take place while sitting at home.
For now, I would suggest a fall back meeting place,
even if it has to be some place public.
The Library seems to be working wonderfully in the south.
Any other suggestions ?

Peace,
V NV
