Hello, Greg.

You said "...you cant really isolate the specifically African posts from the general flow of the conversation"

Yes, I know. But I'm trying to capture the flavor of the threads, and not the entire conversation.

You also said "I dont know how to do blue clickies to Mudcat threads". Unfortunately, my blue clickies always turn out brownish red. I'm not sure why that is, but hopefully they still work.

Many of the comments that I'm reposting were written by me because I've often posted here on the subject of African culture, and because I'm mindful of the fact that I'm reposting comments from others on this thread without their prior permission.

I'd like to take this opportunity to give a big shout out and thank you to all those Mudcat members besides myself whose posts are featured in this thread. If you do not want your posts featured on this thread, you can alert Joe Offer and he or other moderators can delete them.
