they show up more often than you think, and its not always artists chiming in. Dan sperry has made several posts, katie is always around, bless her heart, i believe i saw doug mckenzie post not too long ago, the omnipresent jon raiker is always watching, a lot like santa and just because they aren't posting doesn't mean they aren't reading and watching to see our own thoughts. There role is to put us on the right path but they also want us to develop and help each other so they aren't always gonna be chiming in. Also, they are all surely working on new projects. Kenner is undoubtably working on TOOC in between his Copperfield projects, Lee just got back from a lecture tour across seas, Aaron is working on something with Wayne and was out in Chico not too long ago, Dan and Dave are working on Andthensome, Dan White is working with the big DB and im sure Doug is too, Mr. Madison, well, he is always shrouded in mystery but he was working ont he propaganda vid, andrei is very often on the forums or working on SNC's or 1-on-1's. Tom is i believe still consulting a few tv shows but he has been quite for awhile to maybe he's got something coming up and Joel, well.. honestly i have no idea what happened to him, you get the point though, they are all busy and undoubtably working on important things for us. also, its the holidays, they like spending time with family and opening presents as much as the rest of us. however on that note it would be nice to see a new artist diary sometime soon.
cheers
