I agree and I think it's due to the relaxed atmosphere. This is one of the
few NG I've seen that doesn't have problems with flaming, isn't obsessive
about where/how you post and the trolls mostly stay under the bridge. Don't
you think it feels much more like a community?
IMO, if communication isn't the main point of a newsgroup, what is?

Ronny:
But,but Karen where is that TB troll?! I need that one! When it bothered
me the other day,I threatened to cook it by putting it in a new stew!
LoL As you can see,at times I can get pleasure and fun out of some
trolls! :-){BG}
Ah,now I must get offline for a bit and get back to cleaning my bedroom!
:-)
P.S.
BTW,I got up this morning and came into the living room and set down in
my recliner to put on my shoes. Chair had a towel on it that I had
spread there;but there was something white on the towel. Don't remember
if I realized it was a Depends or not? But I wasn't full awake,
so I sat down on it and it turned out it was a wet Depends! :-( Oh joy!
LoL Well,that wasn't what I said when I felt that wetness through the
bottom of my nightshirt; :-) but then maybe such as that is better left
unsaid?! LoL What a way to get fully woke up! LoL

The community you have when you don't want a community!
Mebbe better phrased as "The community you don't want to be part of".

Anthony, I tend to believe in the "S*it Happens" philosophy. And if you're
going to have to deal with the s*it that happens, it's better doing it with
a supportive newsgroup community than one that worries more about form over
content or gets into flame wars. I think we're all fighting big enough
battles here that we don't have time to wrangle over minutia. The whole top
post/bottom post debate just seems silly to me -- who gives a flip if you
can tell what the poster is saying? But to some NGs it's like telling a
Baptist it's okay to drink whiskey. (don't know if Baptists are
tee-totalers in your country)
How many net nannies _can_ dance on the head of a pin?

Karen, those two comments were entirely to be laughed of.

Sorry I didn't catch that last night. Musta been Friday fatigue. I've
heard people say that sort of thing here. But heck, I don't want to be a
part of rush hour traffic and I don't have any choice in that either. It
would be good if the people in traffic were as nice as the people here
though. :-)

This NG no matter how unintellegent my question is. They help.
Thank you very much

I agree with you. I was actually afraid to post here for awhile....waiting
to get yelled at when I did ;-) So glad to have this place!
