The feeling was the same for a long time. Now try searching for anything related to MES on QL, and you will see why a focused forum is needed. QL is so big, it is becoming very difficult to find information, especially after it gets a bit old. And the longer the thread gets, it becomes even nastier.

Try contributing to the site, and see if it makes any difference. A "focused forum" sounds better than one "dead QL thread" any day. The life of a QL thread is just a few hours after the last comment,unlike a focused discussion forum.

This is just an effort to *try* to make a difference, and it is surprising that you are missing some obvious points :(

And the "part of management" comment didn't seem to make any sense. What exactly were you implying ? I am not in any management, just a parent.

Judging by my experience, there must be hundreds (if not thousands) of parents who are in the same boat. If we all stay as silent spectators, our kids pay the price, and an institution that has the potential for improvement bites the dust. Let us try to do what we can do.

Just remember that grass roots level *online* efforts were a big part of many recent world events, including getting Obama elected as the president of the US :)
