G'day Kerry, 
 probably not :-)  although I would hate to see the echo die completely :-( 
Do you have any ideas on why traffic has died off so dramatically ? 
I still get some users asking questions locally, about scripting etc. 
but there is nowhere near the volume of interest of say 12 months ago. 
Good talking to you
