I AGREE (with Sherri). I too like the quick posting, and I let the author
of the postings know that privately earlier. BUT now it seems that the
entire group should know. I just hope there are more out there like me! :)

It is up to the poster HOW they want to post. Live with it! And, I will
repeat as others have...how hard is it to hit a DELETE button!

Lori's postings were very easy to digest and when I saw in about a half
second it was not of much interest to me, I HIT THE DELETE BUTTON!

I am not saying others, especially Geri, are doing it wrong!!! Geri does an
incredible job, and I look forward to seeing her continue! Again, it is up
to the poster how they want to post!

That is all I have to say, and I hope Lori keeps it up if that is what she
wants to do.
