I signed onto this forum 7 months ago, and if asked by somebody "what's it like on that forum?", one word comes to mind: "cryptic". That and "inscrutable insider sarcasm". There is no entry point into such a world. Every door is labeled "cryptic". Maybe if there were a booklet like "The many and varied denizens of Jazzfanz", I could begin to unravel the inscrutable.
