This really is much ado about nothing once EMOTION is stripped away. For some reason, when Tom REVAMPED THE LIST, it seemed order was going to come from chaos. Well, it still has a way to go, eh? <g>
Those that are not convinced yet, should give things a fair chance and attempt to enjoy the new structure as much as they would enjoy the orderlies of a dictionary or encyclopedia. Who would favor jumbling up the words and topics in them? There really is no threat to anyone that thinks positively about this new orderly setup within Tom's ORIGINAL bunch of folks... or newcomers. There is room for all, just like always, just like before. I want to say..... ONLY BETTER. But, some folks are not ready to hear this kind of message, yet. Better to shoot the messenger. <g> -Bob Urban- ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Dick Chevalier wrote: > > --------------------------- > "Why move to another group, with the trouble makers, it will soon be as > messed up as this one WAS before they left? > As I said, I'm not leaving and neither should any of you." > Bob Saville > ---------------------------- > "Now it appears to me that these folks are the FIRST TO CRY FOUL about > diluting the ORIGINAL list.
