Re: suggestion for the list

[Guest guest]

Barb,

I couldn't access this, as it claims I am not a member. Since I

didn't want to subscribe again, I exited.

I agree that it's helpful to have the info/profile on the children; I

like the people who end their posts with the critical info: name,

age, type of loss, additional issues. It's helpful when answering a

post, and this would be easier for me than needing to access another

website (especially since I'm not a member!). I'll be curious to hear

from others...

Barb,

I prefer this method of identification, also. It's one less step for me as

the reader when I have 50 emails in my inbox. (Don't get me wrong, guys,

I'm grateful for every one of 'em!)

Thanks,

Actually, you're a member of the list but you probably haven't registered

with e-groups - you don't have to join e-groups to belong to the list, but

you do have to join them to access the stuff on the Internet site.

Registration with them is quick and easy, but it's certainly up to you.

Mostly the reason for doing this is so that you can pick a password to allow

you access to past messages from this group. In that way, they can keep them

private and not just anybody can wander in to look at them.

Hugs,

Kay

I like the idea. I just recently joined and would like to know a little more

about some of the people who are on the list

I don't know how well this will work, but I've set up a guestbook at one of

the free services and everyone can run over there and enter their bios.

http://lonestar.texas.net/~listenup/list/listen.htm

Eventually I'll end up moving it all over to a page that's easier for me to

edit and such, but for now this is the best I can do.

Hi, Kay,

I feel rather stupid, I just entered my bio info twice by accident

and can't delete one. Can you help?

Thanks,

Stefanie

Don't feel stupid. I got too many line feeds in my entry. Yours I could fix

(I deleted one of them), mine I can't.

I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving. Enjoy the rest of the weekend!

If you enter a line feed, it makes it enters a blank line. Right now the

site doesn't give me the tools to fix it, but eventually (probably next

week) I'll move these over to a private page for us and I'll fix it then.

This site just makes it easy for you to get the data in.

Hi Kay thanks. I tried to enter 15 as my opinion on the site (yes I realize 10

is highest) but it wouldn't let me, so as a personal note I think the site is

amazing!
