It truly boggles the mind. The owners of the trdev discussion list have already removed the archives for the list which contain over 10,000 posts contributed over many years, and containing tons of valuable links, information and ideas for those involved with training and development.
I chronicled the abject stupidity of these owners when the list was alive, and explained that they would, in fact, kill the list. They’ve succeeded at that through being paranoid and making sure that nobody could actually find the list unless they were “in the know”. Sure, keep a list a secret, and then bemoan the fact that nobody contributes to it.
