I feel the research team is great as far as the ideas generated and member involvment go, it just seems we have a problem implementing and sustaining the research ideas that are started. We discuss a lot of topics, yet do little it seems. Not many of the topics that are started generate more than a few responses, and the ones that do seem to just be lengthy discussions of what we COULD do if the experiment ever got started. I'm not pointing any fingers, except one at myself because I am also responsible for this. We have so much potential here to do some great things in the advancement of dreaming, we just can't seem to get out the front door.

Yep, but is this a problem we can fix? You can't force people to partcipate if they don't want to.

[Mickeys_Elbow]

The first step to fixing the problem is realizing what it is to begin with. User involvment will grow or shrink, it just depends on what people want to or are willing to do.

I am glad I finally got some feeback. I too feel the same way. We have to start putting some of these ideas to work. Possibly if a Research Team Member is conducting an experiment they could PM other members to try and get them involved. Similar to what Seeker has done with his experiment.
