Hello everyone,

I have been on this site for quite a while. In the past I have not posted on the message boards preferring to answer questions directly. I was talking to someone the other day and he said that I was doing a disservice to the others that may have the same question.

So I am here to officially say “Hi”. I will work on putting my answers to the questions here instead in a private email. One of the reasons I did answer privately is that my answers tend to be lengthier. If you all can put up with my longer answers then I will start posting here.

I am looking forward to speaking with you all.

L & M

Welcome to the discussion side of CM.

As far as posting "answers," that's not exactly how a message board works. You start a thread opening a topic of discussion. It would be entirely appropriate at that point to include your own thoughts on the subject, but then I would *highly* recommend leaving the topic open for other's input and opinions.

And if you didn't need the above advice, mea culpa it's early on Monday and that's *MY* excuse.

Chatte, In looking at the posts it seems that most people ask a question and that is why I said that I tend to answer. One of the reasons I do read the boards is because I have read some really good answers to the questions asked. Though I would like to think I am perfect, I am not all knowing. I look at it this way. If I give my answer (opinion) and someone else differs with that idea then I want to hear the contrasting opinion. Maybe there is something I have not thought about. I have no problem with someone disagreeing with me. Just as long as everyone knows that I am ALWAYS RIGHT.
