    It was so long I had to post it in two parts, but worth the read.

    It was a good post, I just read it! :)

    A good friend and a Russian concert pianist and her husband talked me into joining, but I haven't logged on in about 7 years. No doubt my info is still there. My daughter was banned from posting there because occasionally she would post Biblical scriptures to her friends.

    I have a feeling the government is going to do something about them.


    Regards,

    Roger

    Bible scriptures?? You're STILL banned? How long ago did you try to log back in?

    They have a knack for doing that....

    My daughter still is.

    I stopped vluntarily about 7 years ago when they were having security problems.
    Someone recommended I delete my account, but I didn't think that would have done any good and still don't.

    I'm not particularly fond of doing that because that will just exacerbate the problem, but something has to be done. Maybe just the threat of the FCC jumping in would be enough.

    Yeah, I wouldn't bother with it either, there's gonna be atleast ONE bad apple in the bunch. In my more advanced age, I've become a lot more forgiving and tolerable. The closer to death I get, I don't want to waste what little time I have on trivial things! :)

    Roger,

    I watched that guy testify before congress and when asked if he would say wh
    hotel he was staying at, his answer ws no.

    That's like some of the Facebook groups. The prospective member of a
    forum answers a question with "YES", but the question is NOT asking for
    a yes or no answer.

    The tagline below comes to mind.
