GUEST,

When the only tool you have is a hammer, every problem looks like a nail.

Me, I would hate to lose the Mudcat. It contains the most diverse and interesting people I have ever met. I know it also means a great deal to you, too, because you get so passionate with your posts. As to threads that generate over 100 posts, I did one on sheep shaggin' and it pops up now and then. Chris Nightbird did one on lines from songs--phrases--and it took off like a prairie fire on a hot, windy day. Hell, people have varied and occasionally strange interests.

Stuff above the line appeals to me, not because I will ever be a music scholar, but because it gives me the opportunity to use Mr Google to help people find stuff. Low-level stuff, true, but it gives me the opportunity to help someone else. Time is valuable, but people are more valuable than time.

I get a kick outta wishing people I don't know a happy birthday. I love the wit displayed by some folks. I am interested in the human condition. So, yes. I would very much miss the Mudcat. Hell, GUEST, I'd even miss you.
