I loved AJWR. The actual homepage and Unplugged (the webzine) provided a lot of useful information. It was the message board I guess that got out of control. Which could be why Robin eventually redirected message traffic to the boards over here (I think with the threading capabilities on h2o, she felt there was more control of the topics). We treated the AJWR message board more or less like a chatroom and I believe when h2o started there were references along the lines as NOT to use h2o for those purposes. I also remember her trying to set up a new board with threading capabilities but the software seemed somewhat cumbersome in my opinion.
CoHeRent occasionally posts here as does M14. I've seen Spud Mama posting and I did see a "passing thru" posting on the focused forum!
CHR, M14, and Sonia (xena to h2o) were the first People I encountered in the chatroom Kevin and Aussie Boy found for AJWR participants. I still keep in touch with all three of them.
I agree with you, AJWR was definately a pioneer for freedom of speech for witness, even Sis New Hope confessed to getting carried away in the spirit of anonymity!
