I know that it is very difficult to run a forum with over 3000 members. I really was not being critical. I was only asking if it was a problem with Google Groups or not. I think that the moderators AND the members are great here. It is one of those rare forums where people don't flame each other and truly try to help each other.
I don't plan on moving to another group. Let's just end this thread. I did not intend it to start an uproar. Sorry about that.
