Maybe I'm Just Used to Being Here...

But I have been on a few other forums lately, I'm so used to the way this forum operates, nothing else seems as easy to navigate and post on.
On some other sites you can't upload photos, you have to use a photo-hosting site and post a link. I don't do that, too time consuming.
I don't think it's my lack of knowledge. Richard has made this a very user-friendly place. Thanks, Richard!

Here here! I've been hanging around for a year, heat with anthracite, learned so much. I have asked questions about all kinds of other topics here, too; always get great advice! Now I have to learn not to get caught up in the political stuff.........

Well I would love to take credit but the basic design and layout of this site is stock phpBB. I've changed a few things but overall I left everything where it was. The biggest change from stock layout is the front page. One reason being that if you go to another site using phpBB you'll know where it is.

I did that with the knowledge base too, except for some minor changes to the header links it's standard wiki.

Caught me at a weak moment, but I just haaad to point out that what comes from Rush is often his opinion, not truth.

Yup, this is a good place...easy to use...& you can get answers to almost any question....still working on the "make me understand women" one though.

It sure is a great deal more friendly without certain folks from down near the Cape poking at your eyes with a sharpened stick. Politics and religion are topics that should be kept under control. Too much passion and too strong opinions.....when the truth is probably somewhere around the middle of the two points of view anyway.

FREDDY, I was up AROUND THE exit 133 area yesterday and DID see the heat plume from Orrington rising high into the atmosphere. My GPS short circuited, my cell went blank, the blackberry was blacked out.....like a Vortex of energy was sucking the life out of the area.
I knew the 'lonely match' was indeed finally struck!!!!! Lots of folks out on the roadways this weekend, but the foliage is much better southwest of your area. Nothing to look forward to now...November: no leaves, no birds, no sun.

Oh wait, we have friends stokin' up every day. That is stokin with an 'S', not tokin with a 'T'!
A friend came by today to tell me 'The old Farmers Almanac' says: coldest winter in 40 years....something about El Ninio.
I told him that those forecasts are already in the vault for the next ten years! The winter will be whatever it's going to be.
Heating with coal negates the forecast anyway.

The land of hellfire and brimstone.
That would be before you get to The Cape

I completely agree, this is a very user friendly forum!! Very easy to navigate. I just wish I still had my laptop so I could sit in my living room with the computer!!
