Hi MSB,
I was thinking about what you wrote and was wondering why the concept of common courtesy is so frequently ignored on the threads. When one has only words to go on, no facial or vocal expression, the likelihood of misunderstandings becomes that much greater. It would seem that, if there is a true desire to interact with a particular group or person, that a little more consideration could be given until a relationship is established than the complete lack of it so often seen. Some seem to feel that the anonymity of the threads (particularly people who write under pseudonyms) grants them the right to behave as rudely and obnoxiously as they like, and then are affronted when they're rejected. I'd be so surprised if those people act in real life as they do here.

I'm not much of a poet, mostly a musician, but I certainly am enjoying reading all the posts here-so thank you for yours!
