Thanks :) Glad to be here.

That’s a shame you can’t debate more people. Are there any specific people you’d like to debate? Maybe some of us forum members could send them an email (and/or social media comments) requesting they debate you. (That’s something lurkers could do too without having to sign up to the forum.)

I wonder if many people not knowing about Paths Forward is a bigger issue than them not wanting criticism. Like, maybe I’m naive, but I feel like if Paths Forward gained a little bit of traction it could catch on and even become like a trendy thing to do. (Not that trendiness is the right reason to do it.) I’m not sure how I could help it to get that initial traction though. I’ll brainstorm a few ideas and post it on [A Plan to Improve the World: 20 Rational Debate Advocates](https://discuss.criticalfallibilism.com/t/a-plan-to-improve-the-world-20-rational-debate-advocates/1851).

Thanks for recommending Goldratt! I found you around 2020.
