when people call for forums, on mailing lists, I wonder why they don't  
just set one up and invite people to join.

I detest forums - whenever I go looking for information in Google I  
usually end up finding my exact same question asked on a forum  
somewhere, *but* very rarely answered.

every mailing list I'm on provides instant answers to my questions.

Who has time to trawl through forums?
