Default What a talkative group!!

We just changed the newsgroup server with earthlink. This meant that all
messages from April 23 2003, were in my box. I have just finished deleting
all of them...............approx 15,600!!!! It totally amazed me.
Unfortunately I lost some I wanted to keep, and either reread or reply to.
Guess you can't win them all!!

About one third of those messages happened in the last 10 days (one heck of a
firestorm). If spread the rest of those messages out over 3 months we're not
nearly as chatty (catty) as it would appear at first glance.

If you can remember the gist of the messages you wanted to keep you could
probably find them in google without too much trouble.

Welllllllllll, maybe it would be smart to just ignore them, before I say
something I might regret!! LOL. I tend to occasionally be a big-mouth. I
know I could Google, but there was nothing critically important. That makes
for more stitching time!
