Dear PBSers,
I find this Facebook discussion totally inane.

1. There already is a FB PBS page - a place holder pages when PBS
turns up in member's like notation and it includes a number of
active PBS members. Been there over a year.

2. Comparing FB to PBS or the wiki is worse than apples to oranges
- more like rock, paper and scissors.

3. There are already numerous bulb oriented groups on FB (and
Yahoo and other social networks) that know little or nothing of
PBS.

4. Back in the dark ages when I was interim President, of PBS I
suggest PBS take over the place holder setting' on FB and use
FB as an intro to PBS and more serious bulb discussion. I was
roundly and rudely put down.

5. I suggest that PBS does take on ownership of the FB page and
manage it intelligently to encourage the casual fleeting FB
discussions and urge potentially more serious individuals to
consider joining our PBS group. The two groups should not be
in conflict. PBS and further PBS would benefit from similar
interactions with other FB bulb pages and web groups. I
personally think that PBS needs more and wider range of
members.

6. Maintain the current high standards of PBS discussion.

OK let the slings and arrows begin. Best Jim W.
