Those who are willing to turn to the internet tend to stay in business. Those who either flatly refuse to have a website or all that's on their website is "we're at 123 Main Street, open from 10-4 every day", are going to lose business to the shops who are doing mail order. 25 years ago, I had it out with a local business, Great-Grandpa opened it 75 years ago and his business hours were 10-5 M-F, and those were always going to be the hours. They were struggling because nowadays, most women work outside the home -- they were downtown working during those hours, not home in the burbs shopping. The owner's stance was that if they wanted to buy from his store, they'd take time off work. The working women's stance was that if we needed what he carried, we'd go out of the neighborhood to somewhere that was open evenings and Saturdays. And then he wondered why he wasn't getting enough business? Sometimes it's more convenient for me to shop at midnight. Most of the time, it's more convenient for me to shop from home. The company that works around my schedule gets my business. The one who tells me I need to take an hour away from work in the middle of the day doesn't. -- Karen C - California I absolutely agree with you, I just wish it weren't the case because I would really like to take some classes (knitting, tatting, bobbin lace making, needlepoint etc) because there are some things that are just too hard to learn from books. Not only to hard to learn from books, but also that learning in *community* is so much more fun! The interpersonal aspect is so important! Sue -- Susan Hartman |

And there you're getting to (imho, of course!) the crux of the problems in today's society. Back in the days of 6-12 kids in a family, you *learned* how to deal with a variety of personalities. More and more of today's "social" meetings (including here) are done in individual settings and, if we don't agree with something, we just leave. What will happen in years to come when people have isolated themselves to such an extent that we just *can't* deal with others' idiosyncracies, opinions, mannerisms? It's happening faster and faster these days. Not so good. Joan |

Thank you, Jean Marak I'd be happy to list it on my forum. You can try RCTMarketplace, but I doubt you'd get anywhere. And, of course, there's always EBay.
