The end of a newsgroup

Just started looking at this group again after a couple of years absence.
Had received lots of help here in the past, and even been able to help
others a little. Guess I will follow the group for awhile, but the future
does not look good for it.

Well, I have my newsreader set to collapse threads, so I just skim past
the obviously idiotic ones and then mark everything "read" when I leave
the group.

That has been my tactic also. The genealogy news groups that I read also
have the same problem from time to time. But, it is worth it to take a look
at them anyhow.

Well, that pretty much does it. It looks like this newsgroup has gone
the way of the CB radio. It is ruined by a few people that, for some
strange reason, choose to belittle anyone that asks for help.

I trust you all enjoy each others warped sense of humor. Have a great
life.

Love,

Cathy L

hohoho funny martin !

Must do better.

We await her post where she complains that she missed her train to
Liverpool
because we provided her with the Sunday timetable. Of course her distant
Irish
relatives, the O'Lederers, will be out when she pays them a visit in
Ireland,
just as the McLederers will be out in Scotland and the Llederers will be
out in
Wales.

Not "anyone" - just trollish posters who pretend to be totally naive
travelers who dislike all things foreign to the American experience!
(Including quite a few fellow Americans who find your posts embarrassing.)

It sounds much better in French, but then, everything does.
