Hi, David,
You, Rick and Bob do such a beautiful job of running this great list. I'd
hate to see it closed down just because a few people think they know it all
or something like that. We all had to get our start somewhere. As long as
I've been using a computer, I still don't know everything there is to know.
None of us can know everything.
Please don't close this wonderful list down. You're doing such a fantastic
job along with Rick and Bob.
Take care.
Rosemarie

Well,
David
I want you to know publicly that I certainly appreciate all your efforts and
the efforts of Rick as well
It has been a beautiful life line for me as well as learning with the other
listers.
I find it invaluable and wanted to state publicly that you guys are
incredible.
Thanks for everything!
All listers. . .
I hope we can all follow the instructions of this great list so we don't
upset those that manage this. . .
Keep Smiling,
Janie Degenshein

We know who the new people are and also those who claim to know more but in
reality obviously do not. No body has ever been put down on this list or any
other I manage, but if that would turn out to be the general opinion among
the membership there are at least 2 options available.
The list can be shut down which could give me for example a lot of free time
as it would eliminate the need for me to take the time to compose such
messages as this.
Second if anybody doesn't like the manner it is managed they are free to
leave.
I don't need this kind of grief ever and especially now for reasons that I
am not willing to share.
We do this because we can not because we must.

Recently, I made a serious request for the key strokes I would need to
learn
the available RAM on my laptop.
Several people were kind enough to provide the information but one or two
others decided to turn it into a joke or a poke at me for the article I
managed to get printed.
If the same thing happened to one of our list members who was genuinely
trying to learn something, that person might go off and complain
vociferously about the attitude displayed by a technology based list like
this one. I do believe that some of our more capable and knowledgeable
members do tend to forget that there are many levels of understanding
represented by the participants of this group. Perhaps a better approach
might have been to ascertain whether the request was a serious one before
taking humorous pot shots at the sender.
LOL!
