I was looking for a recording of an old Irish song and found Mudcat. I posted. In little time, I had many answers... even one that named a movie with detailed info as to what time it was sung in the movie. I was stunned and, as I read more threads, I was amazed at the knowledge, the diversity, the friendlieness, the caring... and I enjoyed the humourous banter the most.

To comment on one "problem" encountered by some newbies - over the years, there have been some very unfriendly people here but they fell by the wayside, one way or another. Of course, I am guilty of being "very unfriendly" in return but that's because I don't know any better yet. >;-) Although, I must say I am far more tame than I used to be. Perhaps some don't notice this because I don't get involved in adversity as much... unless it involves myself or my friends. (Seroiusly, and you know who youse are, I have written a number of "testy replies" and not hit submit. What are you laughing for?)
