	Possibly this is due to people trying to compete in the very games
that they would be able to discuss knowledgably.  They don't want to give
away any useful information to a potential enemy/competetitor, so they just
don't say anything.
	Also, possibly the reason that people play PBM games is because they
_don't_ have access to the Internet with all of it's free PBEM games.
	Personally, I believe that the overlap between people on the Internet
and people of play PBM games is vanishingly small...although you and I appear
to be one of them.
