The JWFC

(Sorry about this one, Jim. It will no doubt embarrass you so just skip it)

Last week, Jim West was much discussed and I wanted to simply point something out (honestly not intended as a polemic against anybody - just to make that clear):

There are few people who give as much time and effort to furthering and facilitating biblically related academic exchange, debate and development in the World Wide Web as Jim West. No, I don't agree with his cessationist position, and I thoroughly discredited his Bultmann business here, but not only did he create the biblical studies discussion list which now serves 760 members in biblically related discussion as well as hosting various colloquiums with top scholars about their works, but he also maintains the extremely helpful biblical studies resources page. On top of that there is his blog. I don't mean this as a sideswipe at anybody, just to say 'gratitude where it's due'.
