What a refreshing reply - I thought I was trying to converse with just lurkers for awhile. Go figure.

But, you'll have to excuse me for not getting around to replying to each and every posted comment here - with four grand kids running around, we keep pretty busy these days!

About the Post Count:

It's not complicated, at least it wasn't until Yahoo Neo came along. That's when I switched to using Thunderbird to read and reply to messages. With Thunderbird, I can specify what name appears on my posts, like 'Richard J. Williams', or whatever, as the sender. What's great about Thunderbird is that it's an email reader and a discussion group reader. None of those messy, distracting advertisements, gadgets, and pop-ups - it's more for professionals. LoL!

Did I mention that Thunderbird is free?

At other times, I use Google Mail to post to the group because I like the feature where you can include an image in the post by referencing an inline image url for the image. When I do that, what shows up is my my email address - pundits...@gmail.com. and the images can come from my web site. Go figure.

So, for the record, my name is Richard J. Williams and my Google email address is pundits...@gmail.com.

You can send an email reply, or leave a message for me on this bulletin board, or you can call my cell. Do not call my previous place of employ. LoL!

Or, if you're ever at the Starbucks near Hot Wells, look for the guy in the black T-shirt with the laptop, the guy with a big grin on his face.

Otherwise, you can be leaving a message for me with Rita at Whole Foods - I'll get back to you.

P.S. Anyone who is interested in using Thunderbird should key in the following text, exactly, in the Send To text box (substituting your own name or handle):

"Richard J. Williams" <FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com>

Not the first - but the first I'd noticed as I only glanced at the list.

But Seraphita, my duplication is NOT the first on the list, Richard's is! Ok, I admit it: MY knicks are in a twist!BTW, I don't remember that people snitched on others.

I see my first suggestion that someone could increase their allowance by posting from different platforms wouldn't work as the FFL snitchers would be on the case pronto.

Seraphita asks a trollish question and then trollishly doesn't reply to a reasonable follow up. Go figure!

Re "There are a few posters who appear on the count list more than once . . . I replied once from the website because yahoo suddenly became even wackier than before!": So when there was a weekly post limit anyone could double their allowance by posting via email half the time and the rest of the time from the website? Curiouser and curiouser . . .

Seraphita, there are a few posters who appear on the count list more than once. All trolls? Anyway, I replied once from the website because yahoo suddenly became even wackier than before!
