Great find carl! MY issue is that all this crap is overly complicated. I just want it to be both easy, and fun to do things.
lol that article is great but to many fancy words just to say yeah things these days are to complicated, and I haven't a clue why. Lets see today alone I'm trying out a few different weby-web page makers because I ran into a gocha with wordpress it's kind of not all that simple to make small changes to a wordpress theme. I duno I don't think its as simple as it could be. On the other hand lots of people use it, and suposedly Automatix said: uh yeah does this suck, lets try to fix it. My Cellphone has off and on reception. (Kind of the nature of the beast with hills and vallies and no antenta's for a ways. My internet sucks , the place I use to try out some options is ludicrously slow. However The options are Affordable or Comcast. I mention all this because I am puzzled Why the heck are these basic things even a issue oO The way I see it is this: bad news is NM failed. End of story. Politicians just pointing fingers epically failed as well. End of story. The good news is it seems like many of the day to day issues can be solved, NM has a some kind of nice village charm. Personally I've had about enough of people saying john has coodies, Fred has a large eyebrow, Sally's smile is to big or what ever silly things they say, use to many fancy words just to say Oy hey lets see if X can be done better, and not make it so darn complicated. The way I see it the questions should be limited as much as possible: Does it work? and is it simple to do or use?, and useful and mabie even kind fun and cool to do or use? these should be about the only questions at least as far as I'm concerned- lol but hey what do I know. ^_^ On Wed, Apr 6, 2016 at 10:37 AM, Merle Lefkoff <merlelefk...@gmail.com> wrote: > Thanks, Carl.
