Default r.a.sf.c. sewing thread


You should bip over to rec.arts.sf.composition and see what
they are saying about us in one branch of the thread
"American English; probably more than you wanted to know"

On r.a.sf.c, changing the subject line doesn't work unless
you changed the subject on purpose -- trying to keep up with
thread drift only makes matters worse-- so threads there
tend to be very long with many branches.

"American English; probably more than you wanted to know" is
even more ramose than usual, so having found the thread,
feed my name into "find". At the third occurrence of "Joy
Beeson", back up two or three screens. The thread branched
at Elizabeth Shack's nineteen-line post saying that she
wished she could afford to buy custom clothing, which just
naturally brought sewists out of the woodwork

The subject hotted up after Marilee J. Layman's assertion
that fabric is expensive, which, when I last downloaded
headers, was her second post back from the third occurrence
of my name in the thread, which, at the time, was my highest
post in the branch.
