*nodding in agreement*
Yes, I can see your point, regarding lurkers and
censorship. However, it is my understanding this isn't
a chat site. It would be nice to have a local chat
site, where one could pop in and out at leasure during
the day.
I was under the impression that one or two posts a day
was acceptable for Vision2020. Is there someone who
could clarify that for me?
*murmuring to myself*
I wonder how hard a chatsite would be to set up, kind
of an off-shoot of Vision2020?
*warm smile*
Thank you for your viewpoint, it was well taken.
Janesta
And yes, when I talk, or write like this, informally,
using a computer, I use smiles and such so the reader
can "hear" the inflection in my voice. I have found it
cuts down on misunderstandings. *grin*
