I interpreted it as Curtis letting us/FFL know his potential travel plans,
perhaps indirectly, in that he informed the group through a question to Barry,
but no matter - he didn't add a specific prompt in the subject line to push
that agenda. I enjoy hearing how other people's lives are unfolding and having
never been to Majorca, I want to hear details, details man, details. Pictures,
food descriptions, travel log or blog, or whatever, if he decided to go.
How many times does Share pose specific questions and responses to specific
people on this public forum? Cracks me up every time - as if she doesn't want
to hear feedback from whoever - as if she's worried that if she doesn't tailor
the subject line, she won't be heard by who she wants to be heard by. And
perhaps she won't - oh well. Those that follow this forum and the
conversations don't seem to need personal prompts, at least in the past that
was the case. Perhaps she should be emailing people privately?
