Motivation is a Resource. So, we do not have ALL the resources.
And while all of us want to be inspired, the landscape and cultures
divide us. It might be possible that Furotica subgroups might be
the ones most easily brought together...But it quickly falls apart again
because of divisions in Gender Preference, inconsistant communication,
and much of the fanbase is underage/broke/or/too afraid of being
caught with "furry" by RL peers.
...That, and if we finally got a real "Leader", no one would follow
because everyone's too busy marching to the beat of a different drummer.
You could substitute "Leader" for Any centralizing force, whether it
be an Archive, Mailing List, Con, or what have you.
Frankly, we're all paralyzed by this specter of a Puritanic society. We'll
never see our full potential realized until it goes away on it's own power.
And there's no way to accelerate that process. So lay low, and just hang in there.
