Just to clarify what I mean by a key poster

[Guest guest]

"KEY" What a word. How many meanings can you ascribe to that word? Would we all agree on the meaning? In every case? Probably not.This previous post from (which has been embedded in my memory since he posted it) has informed my statement that he is not a "key" poster (although a valued one, for sure):"This list is for normal folks using ACT to help with their personal problems.It is not for professionals per se"The heart and soul of this list ("Key", if you will), are the non-professional members who bare their souls here. That is why I think of them as the "key posters." The professionals are mentors and are "key" in a different sense of the word, in that they are invaluable. But they are not the heart and soul of this list; were it not for the neophytes, the novices, the newbies, the non-professionals, this list would not be "for the Public." It would be a different list with a different purpose.Sure, is a part of the Public. A valuable part of the public and of this list. No doubt about that! I have too many printouts of his posts that I carry around with me to deny that fact. But, with all due respect, the heart and soul of this list (the "key" to this list), are the non-professionals - the "public".Helena
