See "No! Stop! Don't do it!" for more on this.
*God, just when I thought it couldn't get more difficult in finding threads I commented on, Sean does this. You are really a women aren't you Sean. Don't deny it, you are just like my wife, screwing up my system or throwing out my stuff.KNOCK IT OFF, IT WASN"T FUNNY LAST TIME!
*This is really confusing!!! Go back! Go back!If we want to find a topic we can use the search.
*y'all aren't gonna be able to find anything if i don't break up the page 'cos i'll be archiving live topics to read-only every couple of days; this is just a different option.
*I agree with you Adirondack Jack,I have only been on line 5-6 weeks but it seems like this is about the 57 th incarnation of this site.Even the IRS doesn't change its rules this much.
*Sean,You're doing great, I think you just caught many of us by surprise.And the folder titles seem to speak for themselves well.Keep it simple now as many of the recomendations I have read sound complicating in nature.My suggestion;On top of pages abutton I can hit that refreshes all and drops down a list of all topics from all folders that I have posts in, or have somehow marked as topics I am following. Included of course would be a flagging button that when hit would refresh and tell me which topics have new posts since the last time I accessed it.Possible?Keep up the good work and the site,jack : )
*SeanI agree, the site is too unwieldy. Here's what I want you to do for me: I'll give your computer access to my hard drive, where it can ferret out all my strengths and weaknesses, likes and dislikes, questions and answers. Once you've created my profile, email me, each morning, only the relevant files from Breaktime. Your website doesn't get clotted and I don't have to waste valuable scroll-time. Come to think of it, I could use a new computer so I don't have to share this one with my wife. Perhaps, like Freepc.com, FH would like to give away ad-filled computers. I think it could all work together. Freepc can figure out what consumer products you're interested in, Amazon.com can figure out what books you want, so couldn't FH figure out what questions I'm interested in?Or there's another idea! Group us into like-minded folders....Now, about the 63 answers to whether to use 2x4 or 2x6 for walls.............Well, actually, it is fascinating how many tangents can erupt, and how interesting many of them are. (It reminds me that I don't subscribe to FH so much for the main articles--since I don't think I'll ever need a round porch--as for all the accompanying letters, ads, etc.)Just rambling here, during my (extended) breakfast break...
*b Rambling Jim Lewisb You portend the future!What's for breakfast, I like Spanish omelets if you live nearby....I'll bring the onion bagels,Jack : )PS-Am now going to eat my kitchen out of food from all this yak. How can one tell in cyborspace if all the readers are now Pavlovianly drooling? Andrew, any help here?
*Man, this site is like the poster child for Attention Deficit Disorder.
*b LFDJack : )
